The Rosental is one of the most popular historical parks in Leipzig. The large open space to the south of the zoo is the venue for numerous events in summer. The route then leads through Leipzig's beautiful alluvial forest, which stretches along the banks of the Elster, Pleiße and Luppe rivers, around the Mühlstraße soccer stadium and finally back to the Rosental.
Author’s recommendation
A beautiful loop through the shady riparian forest, which is also doable on hot summer days.

We start our loop on Emil-Fuchs-Straße at Leipzig Zoo. Passing the Vorderer Rosentalteich, we first cross the large open space south of the zoo, then through the beautiful Leipzig alluvial forest to the stadium of SG Olympia 1896 Leipzig e.V. We walk once around and then back through the forest until we reach the Rosental meadow again - this time on the southern edge.
