Unfortunately, the asphalt on the circular path around Lake Südfeldsee (Grube) is badly damaged by tree roots. Road bikers must be very careful.

The tower is named after the former Leonhardt lignite mine. At approximately 15 meters high, it offers a sweeping view of the lake's north-south axis and the nearby marina.
