Entrance to the Geopath Babina Mine

Highlight • Trail

The geological path, which I recommend you visit, leads over the site of the former Babina open-cast and underground mine
lignite and ceramic clay, the mining of which on an industrial scale between 1920 and 1973 led to a large number of remaining holes, which are now filled with water, as a result of tunnel collapses. This old pit is in the direct
Neighborhood to the city of Łęknica, d. H. in the southern part of the geological moraine structure, the so-called Muskau fold arch.
The paths, which are well developed with plenty of EU funds, are great to explore by bike, all information boards are also in German.

A certain time after the sinking, the hollow filled with rainwater, into which sulfur compounds found in deeper coal seams found their way. The trees standing in the water turned into a sunken forest. Source: Information board at the sunken forest.
