A very beautiful place, especially the east shore with these great rocks.

Unfortunately, you can't walk all the way around it, as there is no way to go any further on the other side of the lake (from Frankenberg/Elster). But you can still see a lot of the beautiful lake.

Grube Gotthold - a nice place to swim, whether clothed or nude. The descent to the lake from the rocky side is only recommended for people who are good on their feet, otherwise there is another path (blocked by a barrier) that takes you to another bathing area. Clear water, lots of water lilies, but sand and fewer climbing plants at the bathing areas.

Beautiful large lake with nice swimming and fishing spots. Perfect for an overnighter. 🤫

The devil also seemed to have had a hand in shaping the landscape in Mühlberg and the surrounding area. In contrast to Lusatia, nothing here is built on coal, but on lots of sand and gravel. And this is particularly high quality and is loved by civil engineers. They installed it, among other things, in the Berlin city highway and in the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie.
