Hiking

Like the Pleißemühlgraben, the Elstermühlgraben was largely built over after the end of the GDR and was in a heavily contaminated state. In the 1990s, the city of Leipzig began to renovate its water structures. As part of this, the Elstermühlgraben was reopened and made accessible in several steps.
