ONE LAKE A THOUSAND COLORS

I often visit Torgau - a town in east Germany where I regularly have loadings and unloadjngs at the local glass factory. Because of that I spent many days and weekends in this city and over time I’ve found a place that feels a bit like my small escape.

My favorite parking spot is Rastplatz am Grossen Teich. There are several places to park in Torgau but this one gives me exactly what I like and need: peace and quiet. The parking area is located directly next to a lake. In summer you can swim there and during colder months you can walk or cycle around it. The full loop is about 9.5 km. I’ve cycled it many times and once I even walked the whole route on foot. 😀 In autumn I love going into the nearby forest to look for mushrooms and another autumn's signs.

Unfortunatelly this place ist not perfect. The ground is not really suitable for heavy trucks. It isn’t paved so in winter or during rainy weather it is better to avoid it unless you want to get stuck. 😁 Another downside is the lack of a toilet. The nearest one is in a supermarket about 700 meters away but the shop is closed on Sundays and holidays so on those days I just have to manage without it. 😔

But even with these small inconveniences I really enjoy spending my weekends there. The sunsets over the lake are absolutely beautiful and perfect and today I want to share some of them with you. They were taken at different times of the year and to me each one carries its own little story. Enjoy it! 🙂
