July 5, 2025,Iron Lake Challenge "Sachsen-Anhalt" - See-Nr. 3: Muldestausee

One week after the Cologne Trail, this is a slightly shorter route: 17 km around Saxony-Anhalt's third-largest lake, the Mulde Reservoir.
As the name suggests, the Mulde River is dammed here before it flows into the Elbe.
This lake is a residual pit from the Muldenstein open-cast lignite mine, which was active from 1954 to 1975. After that, this …

Today was a little practice for the 7 Lakes hike on Friday. I had chosen a loop around the Muld Reservoir. Unfortunately, roadworks made it impossible to access the hiking car park 😒 so I looked for a parking space in the next town (Pouch) and started from there. The paths around the reservoir are very beautiful; you can always …

Enjoyed a lot of rest.... only the fairly clear and freshly existing wild boar tracks made me feel a bit uncomfortable. But in itself a round with potential for repetition …

Yes, the path runs very close to the lake. However, it is often so overgrown that you almost need a machete... That's a shame. Otherwise, the path is very varied and easy to walk.

May 12, 2024,Muldestausee🚶‍♀️🎒

Unfortunately, this is my last lake in this area 🤷‍♀️. The "paths" are mostly nature trails and the route was pure nature again 😊👌. Sometimes I hoped that the path would continue 😖 and it almost always did - when I stood in front of a game fence, I quickly found a footpath around it 😉. This discovery route is …
