Hard to believe: The "Cossi" emerged from a dusty coal mine. Up until 1990, the output amounted to 87 million tons of lignite, and the open-cast mine was only shut …

After a forced break due to C..., there was a small detour to Leipzig. You can unwind here, especially when the weather is nice. However, if you like it quiet, then you should not choose this tour, because bathing bays and cafés invite you to plan a trip there.

A very special bike tour: We booked a pedal car for four riders. Two in the front, two in the back, and we also squeezed today's birthday girl between us on the back seat. So, for her 98th birthday, our mom could enjoy another wonderful bike ride around Lake Cospuden. Who would have thought that possible? You can rent these …

Yesterday we went to the beautiful Cospudener See in Leipzig's Neuseenland with our little daughter and granddaughter Melina...
Our little Melina was totally enthusiastic about the "Big Water"... it's cool and beautiful, she said.
The little mouse 🐁 and we were totally amazed by the beautiful landscape and the big lake. Of course there was a picnic at the lake🌊💧🌊💧🌞😎🌞. …

Day 2 of the vacation at Lake Cospuden.

180 steps to the panoramic view
The people of Leipzig love their "Cossi", Lake Cospuden. On its southwestern shore is the Bistumshöhe, a hill that at 131 meters high has to be conquered first. If you still have the strength and don't mind seeing the ground beneath your feet through the lattice …

Last "workup" now 😉... and hard to believe that it was our 1st and certainly not last visit to the Leipzig Lake District. So close...and the maritime flair has something of the Baltic Sea⚓ and a very good water quality...The Cospudener See was opened up in 2000 and the 10.4 km long paved circular route is also ideal for cycling. …

Today a lovely family day at Lake Cospuden came to an end. At lunchtime we drove around the lake and finally climbed up the Bistumshöhe on the way. The view was great in this weather.
After the climb we had a late lunch at "Brot und Kees" (highly recommended). Afterwards we used the afternoon to go swimming at the lake. …

A former open-cast lignite mining area has been transformed into a local recreation area worth seeing.

After I finished the early shift, the weather was nice, so after a long time I went to Cosi again to cycle two relaxed laps around the lake with my singlespeed, but it was too busy again regarding the crowd, but understandable given the weather and because it was Saturday.
