Leipziger Neuseenland 2025: Climbing park and new adventures await!
The Leipzig Neuseenland, a unique leisure and tourism area, has developed enormously in recent years, particularly as a result of the flooding of former brown coal opencast mines. There are some innovations planned for the 2025 season that should attract both locals and tourists. In this context, the Markkleeberg climbing park, which opened in 2014, was put back into operation after it had to be dismantled in 2023 due to worn wooden elements.
The newly designed climbing park now offers visitors three levels with different levels of difficulty and is open to children aged six and over. A special feature is the new zipline route, which stretches over an impressive total length of 300 meters and enables rapid rides along a steel cable. In addition, adventure seekers can experience a base jump from a nine meter high platform and enjoy an extensive panoramic view of the Leipzig Neuseenland from here.
Expansions in the cycle path network
There is also positive news for cyclists: the junction system in southern New Lakeland has been expanded to Borna, making it easier to explore the region. These measures are intended to further improve the offering for active recreation and strengthen the region as an attractive destination for cyclists.
Accommodation and accommodation tax
In Großpösna and Markkleeberg, hotel guests have had to pay an accommodation tax of five percent of the overnight price since 2023. This tax was introduced to invest in the development of tourist infrastructure. A further step in this direction is the celebration of the topping-out ceremony for a new youth hostel on Lake Markkleeberger with 150 beds, which is scheduled to reopen in spring 2026.
Overall, the developments in the Leipzig Neuseenland show that the region strives to offer tourists attractive leisure options and to expand the experience for visitors not only through adventures in nature, but also through improved infrastructure. While the Markkleeberg climbing park is a highlight, the cycle path network significantly expands the opportunities for active recreation. These initiatives are part of the continuous growth and attractiveness of the Leipzig Neuseenland as a destination for those seeking relaxation.
