The restaurant has been closed for several years (sometime in 2021) and is slowly falling into disrepair. Its future use is unknown.

A very nice cycling and hiking path along Lake Neustadt. Superbly paved. Perfect for road bikes.

The Magdeburg Zoo is worth a visit; it is lovingly designed and offers many opportunities for children to learn, experience and play.

Outside the bathing season, you should find out in advance whether the lake is open to walkers 😉
