Stops included the reservoir, Malschwitz ponds, Lukasteich observation tower, Olbasee, the House of 1000 Ponds in Wartha + associated adventure trails, footbridges and observation towers...

Today was a flat round through my beautiful home around Bautzen, through the biosphere reserve of the pond landscape, where all kinds of waterfowl were to be seen. Then past the Bautzen reservoir through the beautiful old town home.
