Just a few minutes away from the city’s splendid old town, a nature paradise is waiting for you: 960 hectares of glittering water, sandy beaches and the deep green of the 420 m-high Landeskrone, the city’s local mountain. This is where tourists and locals can get away and relax.

Here in the Germany-Poland-Czech Republic border triangle, families and people looking for various kinds of leisure activities will all find something according to their taste: the 16km-long and nearly completely asphalted trail around the lake passes swimming sites, playgrounds and a nature reserve. At the banks and near the lake, cyclists, skaters and walkers can enjoy lovely nature and beautiful views during any season of the year. For water sports enthusiasts, like surfers, sailors and stand-up paddlers, Berzdorf Lake is ideal to live their passion.
