Top 20 Lakes around gmina Gubin

If you let your gaze wander, raise your head, and lose track of time, you will find at the Krayner Ponds what you long to seek in big cities: a piece of tranquility. Here, where the water spreads beneath the sky like an open book, your thoughts begin to wander – just like your feet following this path. The ponds themselves lie silently, framed by forests that stand on the banks like ancient sentinels. Sometimes, light aisles open up, through which the light dances, sometimes the forest embraces you with its green shadows. The rustling of the wind in the trees, the gentle gurgling of the water, the distant chirping of a jay – all this becomes the soundtrack of this hike. Those who hike here quickly notice: the pace slows down, the view becomes more precise. Every step on the soft forest floor becomes a promise, every view of the lakeshore a small revelation. Especially at the junction of the ponds – where the water surface tapers and the reeds line the path like a natural curtain on both sides – you almost feel like you're stepping into a painting. And then there's that moment when, between two branches, the view opens onto the water, calm, dark, mysterious. A stage for reflections, for plays of light, for thoughts that go deeper than usual.

The Schwerzkoer Mill is located in the middle of the idyllic Dorche Valley, right on the banks of Lake Dolche. This picturesque place, surrounded by dense forests and a gently rippling pond, invites you to linger. While you sit on the bank and let your gaze glide over the water lilies, you can enjoy homemade bread or a smoked trout in the small mill shop. Especially on warm days, it is wonderful to sit outside and take in the tranquility of the place. The mill itself, once the powerhouse for grain grinding and sawing, is now a museum and a popular tourist destination. The demonstration of the rebuilt water wheel is particularly fascinating - a relic of the past that makes the mill's long history tangible. For anyone who wants to take a look into the past, there are regular tours that will make every technology lover's heart beat faster. If you're a little hungry, there are rustic bread and lard and sweet cakes, and the coffee tastes twice as good here. Whether for a short stop or a relaxing afternoon – the Schwerzkoer Mill is a wonderful place to combine nature, history and enjoyment.

You can eat delicious food in the mill shop... the smoked trout or the goulash are very tasty... 😋

Carp is considered the fish of the region. Benjamin Junghanns is firmly convinced of this. No wonder, since he deals with the popular food fish almost every day. The 39-year-old is part of the Eulo pond farm and takes care of foreign trade and sales at the regional weekly markets - in Forst (Wednesday), Spremberg (Thursday) and Cottbus (Friday). He also takes care of smoking the tasty non-predatory fish. The family business has been run by father Christoph Junghanns for more than 30 years and, as usual, things get really stressful towards the end of the year. "From September onwards, the ponds are gradually drained and preparations are made for the Christmas business," reports Benjamin Junghanns. The Forst pond farmers ultimately have to look after more than 35 ponds. Even if Junghanns Junior cannot give an exact figure for this year's quantity, an average of around 30 tons of food carp are "harvested" each year.

Thank you for the information.

And when you grow up?

Note signs are always good.

When the weather is good you can sit by the pond. We recommend a demonstration and tour of the mill with a good explanation. http://www.schwerzkoer-muehle.de/
