Alongside the floating houses that have been available for booking on Lake Geierswalde for some years now, there is now a holiday home resort at Klitten harbour on Lake Baerwalde. These homes look more like flat houseboats. As well as a generous living space of 44 square metres for four people, there are two outdoor terraces, each measuring 40 square metres. The furnishings and fittings are exclusive. There are plans to build 25 houseboats on Lake Baerwalde. At the moment there is just one, which has been available for booking since June. More are currently being built. Stay here and enjoy a view of the water that cannot be beaten! www.schwimmendeshaus.de Three Lakes in One The Lusatian Lake District is Europe´s largest lakeland region. Opencast mines are being flooded to create more than 20 new lakes, which are being joined together by canals to create an attractive boating holiday destination. The Barbara Canal, the second navigable canal, has been in operation for a year and connects Lake Geierswalde and Lake Partwitz. (Lake Geierswalde is also connected by the Koschener Canal to Lake Senftenberg.) The Barbara Canal takes its name from St. Barbara, the patron saint of miners. Three lakes in the Lusatian Lake District are now connected by canals and can be explored by boat. License-free boats, rafts, BBQ- boats and simple houseboats can be hired on the lakes. Boats with a draft of 1.2 metres can sail on the canal. The rules for navigating the canals are easy. Entry is on the half hour westwards to Lake Geierswalde and on the hour eastwards to Lake Partwitz, in each case for ten minutes. If you have to wait (50 minutes at the most), there are places on the lakes where you can tie up your boat. The Barbara Canal is in operation all year round. www.brandenburg-tourism.com/holiday-region/lausitzer- seenland/ Tourismus-Marketing Brandenburg GmbH is die tourism marketing organisation for the Federal State of Brandenburg.
