Lake Cospuden

The development of Lake Cospuden from a brown coal mine to a lively leisure oasis is exemplary for the region. The Zöbigker harbor with water sports, restaurants, passenger boat trips, sauna, bike and boat rental is a popular meeting place for young and old. On the north bank, Saxony's longest sandy beach invites you to swim and play beach volleyball. Water hikers can paddle on water course 1 from the city harbor in the heart of Leipzig to Lake Cospuden. There is a wonderful view from the Bistumshöhe tower over the Neue Harth and the BELANTIS leisure park.
