Very nice view. Quiet beach. The only thing that bothers me is maybe the many algae, but it didn't bother me.

Hiked around Lake Cospuden again after a long time.
It is one of the first lakes to emerge from the former opencast mines.
From the tower on the Bistumhöhe you have a very nice view.

Today I took advantage of the good weather to go for a run around Lake Cospuden. If you don't stubbornly walk on the asphalt, it's actually quite nice.

Today we went around Lake Cospuden. This time with pictures from the top of the observation tower. I sent my son up there; he's not afraid of heights. 😁 The picture with the pyramid is Belantis. 🎢🎡

The witch had given me a good shot after the last tour, so a careful lowland tour today to brighten up the dull November day.
And Thursday because my whole team is sick too...😔
The remaining opencast mine has been flooded since 2000 …

A nice lap around the lake, the weather was rather cloudy ... but the reward was delicious on the sandy beach. Is open until the end of January 2022 👍
