Drinks & Nightlife

Historic Biergarten specialising in Gose - a German-style sour beer that is tart, fruity, and quite refreshing. Food is served in pretty big portions, and a touch on the heavy side.

Popular lake that's surrounded by beaches and places to swim. Many nudists here in summer so maybe not for the prudish! The lake is one of the reclaimed open-pit coal mines in the area that's known as "neuseenland" ("new lakes district") that is now becoming a recreation area.

A former coal mine that's now been reclaimed as a lake and nature reserve. Quieter than Cossi, and also great for cycling.

Entertainment & Activities

Good place (but one of many) to hire kayaks starting from 6euro/hr for a single. On a sunny weekend day its worth reserving one in advance. Kayaking is especially good for beginners in Leipzig because there isn't really any big boats on the water. Also beach volleyball and a beach bar nearby.
