Hainer Lake

Highlight • Lake

Where you can go for a relaxed walk, cycle or take a boat to sea today, people used to be busy dredging. The Hainer See is one of the largest bodies of water in Leipzig New Zealand. It was created by renaturing the "Witznitz II" lignite mine, which was closed in 1993, as well as the neighboring Haubitzer and Kahnsdorfer See.

Haubitzer Lake

Highlight • Lake

The smaller Haubitzer See is separated from the Hainer See by only a good 50 meters of water and forms a calm, almost square basin at the southern end of the entire lake.

North-south dam of the former Witznitz II open-cast mine

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

It's great what has emerged from the open-cast mine landscape. The lake is reflected in the sun in a beautiful turquoise color. Most of the paths are paved - nice for cyclists or inline skaters.
