The Cospudener See is a flooded former lignite mine in the south of Leipzig. Since its release for the public in 2000, it has become one of the most popular lakes in Leipzig's New Lakeland.
In summer, the trail around the lake is sometimes very crowded, as here pedestrians, cyclists, skaters, etc. have to share the (too narrow) way.November 8, 2017
In the warm season you can cool off here well. Dogs are allowed in the first section of the dog beach in the water.
