https://www.koberbachtalsperre.de/ Ideal short circular hike around the Koberbach Dam with children. Circular route approximately 4.3 km. You can also walk around the fore-dam of the Koberbach Dam. The Koberbach Dam is a dam in the northwest of the Zwickau district in the Free State of Saxony. It was built to supply industrial water to the towns of Neukirchen and Crimmitschau and today serves exclusively for flood protection and recreation. Great for relaxation, hiking, picnicking, swimming, and fishing. There's even a drive-in cinema directly across from the Koberbach Dam.

The name alone suggests a charming story. Nestled in a gently rolling landscape near Neukirchen/Pleiße, the castle sits enthroned on a hill with sweeping views over the countryside.

The relatively small lake lies between Sommeritz, Weißbach and Brandrübel. You can walk or cycle around it. Benches are available for a short break.
