Lake Markkleeberg

Highlight • Lake

The Markkleeberger lake originated from the former open pit as Espenhain. Between 1939 and 1994 lignite was mined here. After completion of the coal mining began in 1999, the flooding of the lake. The final stand has been reached at +113.0 m asl, so that the Markkleeberg Lake could be handed over to the public on 15.07.2006.

The varied circular route around the lake is ideal for hiking, cycling or a Segwaytour. There are cafés and restaurants on the lakeside promenade.

In 2013, the Kanuparkschleuse was completed. Thus, the Markkleeberger See is connected by an 800 m long canal passage with the neighboring Störmthaler See.

The Pleiße is a 90 km long, right (eastern) tributary of the Weißen Elster in Saxony and Thuringia. It rises in Lichtentanne-Ebersbrunn in the Erzgebirge basin and flows into the Leipzig water junction. The river is well developed by the Pleiße cycle path.

Bison Enclosure at Lake Cospuden

Highlight • Structure

The Sika deer bison enclosure was completed in 2008 and houses bison and sikatiere. Both types of animals in the enclosure increase the fair value for visitors as well as the fairness of the species and the proximity to nature. Operator of this enclosure is the Buffalo Ranch.

Zöbigker Harbor (Pier 1), Lake Cospuden

Highlight • Structure

Whether you're cycling or hiking, you can always use an affordable way to enjoy a good meal. In my opinion, this is a nice alternative without having to sit down at a restaurant.
