View of Lake Cospuden

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice view. Quiet beach. The only thing that bothers me is maybe the many algae, but it didn't bother me.

South tip of Lake Zwenkau

Highlight • Lake

Southernmost tip of the lake in the east of Zwenkau. Here and there there are nice little places for swimming, including nudism. Nice and relaxed, not as crowded as the Cossi.

Highlight • Structure

While the children can play captain, the parents have time to read the two information boards in peace. Small mooring for boats.

The Trianon temple ruins are modeled on the Concordia temple in Rome, which is located on the western narrow side of the Roman Forum next to the temple of Vespasian. The ruins near Lake Zwenkau were built in 1790 within sight of Eythra Castle and inaugurated in 2002 by the Zwenkau local history association at the original location. The castle was destroyed and dredged together with the town of Eythra in the 1980s as part of the opencast mining activities in Zwenkau.

Arranged around the Trianon there are still fragments of stone sarcophagi, some boundary stones and a memorial stone. The former Saxon/Prussian border is also marked.

The Trianon also forms the current endpoint of the more than 250-year-old Lindenallee, a former four-row avenue that formed the central axis of the former palace park of Eythra Palace, which was laid out in the Romantic style.

From the Trianon, via the avenue, you can reach a small resting place on the Zwenkauer See circular route, a well-developed cycle path that always offers nice opportunities to get directly to the lake, to take a dip and to watch the birds and sailors navigating the waters to use.

The arrival by public transport almost worked on time. But shortly before the destination station, the S-Bahn simply stopped. 10 minutes delays. bus away. The next bus then brought me to the starting point of the hike at the SOMMERLUST stop. How appropriate the name on this glorious summer day!
Varied route often along the lake with beautiful bathing opportunities. …

A beautiful, varied route, and we were mostly alone today. Unfortunately, there were no markers on this stage, so we actually used Komoot. Much more annoying, however, was that both stamp booths were unusable because the ink pads had completely dried out. However, since the team at @Sportfreunde Neuseenland is always willing to help, we're sure to find a solution.
