Lake Cospuden is one of Leipzig's best-known recreational areas. Located to the west of Markkleeberg, it attracts visitors with its beautiful lakeside paths, bathing beaches and almost maritime flair. In summer, be sure to take your swimming gear with you and take a dip in the cool water after your run!
Author’s recommendation
If you have a little time, you can plan a detour to the viewing tower on the Bistumshöhe or linger a while at the bison pasture.
