General presentation
Lusatian Lakes
Former mining region transformed into large lakes, beaches, bike paths, new ports and transitional landscapes.
Senftenberger See, Geierswalder See and Partwitzer See give the most telling landmarks of Lusace Lakes. Together, they make up a destination where the shores and lakes meet, the natural spaces and the countryside, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than a single uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: landscape in conversion and very seasonal. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Coast
Senftenberger See
The Senftenberger See shows the transformation of the Mining Lusace into a leisure landscape, with equipped beaches, cycle paths and long views of a very quiet water. Around the shores, pine trees, harbours and bathing areas make a more convenient day, more interesting when you know the artificial origin of the lake.
Coast
Geierswalder See
Geierswalder See lends itself to a edge walk that puts forward light winds, reflections and transitions between water surfaces and vegetated edge. A sequence at the rise of light then one at the fall offers a concrete sensation of the dynamics of the site.
Coast
Partwitzer See
The Partwitzer See belongs to the lakes born from the mining conversion of Lusace, and it is felt in its still clear shores, its simple beaches and its regular paths. Wide water, dykes and wilder portions make up a recent landscape, interesting for walking or pedaling away from traditional seaside resorts.
Coast
Lausitzer Seenland
The Lausitzer Seenland It is understood as an assemblage of water, walks and inter-coast spaces that require a gradual reading. Walk along several close points of view: the landscape is not summed up in one angle but in a geography of passages.
