It's not Knappenrode, it's Boxberg. Knappenrode only had a briquette factory. Please change the title.

Beautiful pond landscape. Sea eagles can be observed here. The bike path, however, isn't great...

Beautiful bike path along the shore. Lake views are only occasionally visible, however. Easy to ride, few rooty hills...
