Zwenkauer Lake – West Shore

Highlight • Lake

Very nice bike path around the lake, which should be renewed in many places due to asphalt faults. The faults are so extreme in some places that you can only go step by step.

The board provides information about the mining landscape of Zwenkau/Cospuden. It is informative and worth reading.
