ハイデブリックの湖・トップ20

The marina is full of water, there are enough jetties and moorings. What is missing are the boats. Only two were here today.

The lake was created by flooding the former Schlabendorf-Süd lignite open-cast mine. It has an area of 4.37 km². Flooding ended in 2012. From 1976 to 1990, 171.2 million tonnes of lignite were mined here.

Wanninchen Nature Park Centre. Entrance fee: 4€ per person.

Nature is reclaiming what surface mining destroyed. The Sielmann Foundation has purchased 3,000 hectares here. The Wannichen Nature Conservation Station is worth a visit.

There is currently even a bench here to enjoy the peace and quiet and the view of the lake.

The large lake was created from a remaining open-cast mining hole, but this is only revealed by a few conspicuous bank structures. Swimming and sailing are not permitted for safety reasons. Only the ship “Barbara”, which is usually anchored near the Schlabendorf Marina, occasionally sails across the water. Its job is to lime the water, which is quite acidic. This only bothers the animal world to a limited extent. The lake is a popular roosting place for cranes and geese during migration periods. Sand martins breed on islands. Seagulls are almost ubiquitous, as are the sea eagles.

Marina Schlabendorf is a recreation and leisure center on Lake Schlabendorfer. However, due to the current closure of the lake, it is relatively deserted. When it's not on the move, the liming ship “Barbara” is not far away.

Beautiful complex, where once the princes strolled
