Frankleben Beach at Geiseltalsee

Highlight • Beach

The East Beach. Frankleben opens the bathing experience at the Geiseltalsee. Very, very busy on weekends, so I recommend the morning hours or later evening. Seating is available, as is a snack bar.

February 15, 2023,Geiseltalsee-Runde mit Beginn in Frankleben

Sunshine and off work, finally a reason for a new komoot tour. The decision fell on the Geiseltalsee. If the real spring is yet to come and it could have been greener, it was a nice and long round. Almost all asphalt, but there are alternative routes, ideal for cyclists.
The season starts in April, when the gastronomic facilities are …

IRON LAKE CHALLENGE SAXONY-ANHALT
rockyourgoal.de/iron-lake-challenge/germany/sachsen-anhalt/#Geiseltalsee

It's amazing how nature prevails and blossoms anew with the help of humans (and the LMBV). The challenge mentioned above was actually the reason for me to visit and walk around most of these post-mining lakes again. I'm far from finished with it. But I'll probably take a little break for now, because the lakes …

January 31, 2026,Eima ummen Geiseltalsee drumrum

The tour is definitely not so boring in summer. I saw a lot of gray, due to the weather, bushes on either side, and a snow-covered path in the middle. Walking on the snow was extremely strenuous, but manageable with my spikes. I'll give the route another chance in summer, then I can also use the smaller paths.

July 24, 2026,Geiseltal See

Beautiful hike around the Geiseltal lake. Today without nettles and blackberry bushes, which is also nice. Chose the asphalt path quite deliberately in order to also walk over the vineyard.
There are always beautiful views of the very large lake. The peninsula jutting into the lake like a finger gives the whole thing a certain structure.
The shore path is …

Walked a lonely lap around the Geisetalsee today. I've never been here, it was very interesting. I'll be back in the summer when the wine bar is open....
