Bärwalder See is not only Saxony’s largest water body, but also offers plenty of leisure activities. A 14.3 mile (23 km) long circular tarmac path runs immediately around the lake. All attractions and sights along the water body are accessible from this fully tarmacked path.

The Klitten lakefront is something special with its panoramic view across the lake and the impressive silhouette of the Boxberg power plant. Equally impressive is the harbour with its landmark, the red and white lighthouse, the first in the entire Lusatian Lake District. It was inaugurated in late summer in 2011.

No wonder that water sports enthusiasts feel so much at home at the Klitten lakefront. The Klitten harbour equally welcomes beginners wishing to learn the art of sailing and experienced sailors, who want to rent a boat. The harbour boasts numerous berths and on-land boat storage places that can also be used by day trippers. Visitors wishing to stay longer find comfortable accommodation at the Klitten camping ground.

A bathing beach is located in the immediate vicinity of the harbour. The shoreline gradually descends into the water, offering ideal conditions for families with children. An ambulance station, a water sports club house, a camping site and food service establishments are all located just beyond the harbour. Piers in Klitten, Uhyst/Spree and Boxberg/O.L. provide optimal conditions for passenger cruises.
