Orchard meadow & Upper Lusatian Biosphere Reserve
An orchard meadow near Rietschen OT Neuliebel, framed by gardens and wildflower meadows. The view stretches far across the Weißen Schöps to the opencast mine edge. Sheep and chickens share the space, and in the evening the campfire burns. All around lies the Upper Lusatian pond landscape with its old carp ponds, a haven for birdwatchers. Swimming: just around the corner. Those who wish can stay seated until the herons fly over the ponds.1
What Hinterland writes
„You can stand with your tents, caravans or campers on a beautiful meadow orchard. Framed by our gardens and flowering meadows. The view goes far, over the Weißen Schhöps to the edge of the opencast mine.“

Sights in the area1
Upper Lusatia Biosphere Reserve
A mosaic of carp ponds, heath and forest around the site; in spring and autumn cranes and herons stop over here, so pack the binoculars.
Senftenberg Lake
A flooded opencast mine in the Lusatian Lake District with a beach and viewing tower; the swimming-lake classic when the ponds are too shallow for a dip.
Dresden
The old town with the Fürstenzug and the Blue Wonder bridge lies about 75 km away; a rainy-day outing when the site gets too quiet.
