The Zschampert stream is a tributary to the left of the White Elster. It flows through the Leipzig district of Miltitz and today gets its water mainly from Lake Kulkwitz, as its upper course between Seebenisch and Knautnaundorf has dried up.

Drain from the canal into a small stream. Wonderful to stay. Also to refresh. Especially for children.

The Zschampert was originally a natural watercourse that ran relatively straight from south to north in the west of Leipzig, but today it is in a very unnatural state. Until around 1990 it also served as an industrial wastewater diverter ("receiving water") and regularly brought heavily polluted water into the Neue Luppe.

The Zschampert used to start near Seebenisch south of Kulkwitz, but the southern part is now dry; in the summer months the Zschampert hardly carries any water further north either. In the landscape today it appears behind the B 186, disappears briefly underground or in a new bed near Göhrenz, then flows around the Kulkwitz lake to the east, flows through Miltitz and Burghausen and passes under the Elster-Saale canal in a tunnel about 100 meters long. A few hundred meters further on, an old and a new course split. The western arm, also known as the Augraben, flows after a canalized section over the former, meandering Zschampert course and then along the foot of the dam of the Neue Luppe to the west to the Luppe wild bed. The eastern arm flows straight on to the Neue Luppe and joins the Alte Luppe shortly before it. The Zschampert forms the border between the city of Leipzig and the district of North Saxony over a long stretch.

Originally, the Zschampert flowed in a wide, partly still existing stream floodplain with floodplain meadows, which formed part of the ecologically particularly valuable mosaic of floodplain meadows, floodplain forests and bodies of water in the Luppe and Elster floodplains that can still be seen today.
