We explore the springtime animal and plant diversity of Leipzig's floodplain landscape from the water. What grows, crawls, flies and swims on the sunny banks and in the light-flecked waters of the Pleiße? Which species live in the shady river courses of Europe's largest inner-city alluvial forest area? If you are equally interested in the biodiversity and condition of the alluvial forest, we cordially invite you to discover Leipzig's green lung by paddling - from a natural history perspective and at eye level.
