About Erholungsgebiet Kiebitz
The Erholungsgebiet Kiebitz is a 110-hectare holiday and bathing complex just north-east of Falkenberg/Elster in the Elbe-Elster district of southern Brandenburg. Its centre is the Kiebitzer See, a lake left behind by gravel extraction and surrounded by mixed woodland, with water the state tourism board describes as excellent. Along the shore runs a sand beach of about 1.3 to 1.35 km with guarded and unguarded stretches, a swimming enclosure and a large water slide. The nude area is a separate FKK section with its own big sunbathing lawn, placed at the far end of the beach promenade away from the main family beach; a fenced dog beach is also kept apart. Because the site is a full resort, the nude area sits beside a camping ground with around 150 pitches, holiday bungalows, tiny houses and tipis, a snack bar, beer garden and ice-cream café, and rentals for pedal boats, rowing boats, bikes and SUP boards. Other attractions include beach volleyball, mini golf and a hedge maze, so expect families and campers in summer. Anglers use the west shore.
Getting there
The complex is at Hörsteweg 2, 04895 Falkenberg/Elster, signposted from the town towards the north-east. The operator says there is ample parking on site; fees were not published online. Falkenberg/Elster has a major railway junction station, and regional bus lines (577, and 525 to Uebigauer Straße about 1.2 km away) serve the area, after which you walk the last stretch. Inside the site the FKK lawn is reached on foot along the beach promenade to its far end. Paths are level and the main beach is flat sand, but no specific wheelchair facilities were documented for the FKK section.
