Experiencing the water
The lakes in the vicinity of Guben and Gubin offer ideal conditions for relaxation in the cool water, and not just for people who like swimming. The region boasts a large number of natural water areas. Whether you are looking for peace and quiet or adventure and sport, the lakes offer a wide range of possibilities. The small lakes to the east and west of the Neisse river, surrounded by heathland and mixed forests, are true treasures for bathing enthusiasts as well as keen anglers and invite you to relax in nature. This is the place to be if you are looking for outdoor activities. In the municipality of Schenkendöbern, on the German side, there are several natural lakes with excellent water quality. They are especially popular for swimming and fishing. On the Polish side, there are two natural lakes in the nearby region. The Neisse – a river that divides the countries and yet connects them – is a great place for water tours. You can also swap your bike for a boat and cover part of the distance on the water.
