Itinerary

Individual arrival to Cottbus. The metropolitan city in the Lausitz region is one of Germany’s greenest cities with several parks.

Leaving Cottbus and cycling directly to Burg wich is already located at the edge of the Spree Forest. You should make a side trip to Vetschau on your way to Lübbenau.

Riding next to the spree you will reach Lübben and go further on small paths into the Northern Part of the Spreeforest. Today´s destination is Krausnick or Schlepzig.

Cycle along the Spree dam through fields and past fishing ponds directly back to Lübben.

Starting in Lübben continue through the serene forest and meadows of the biosphere reserve. You may want to take a small detour through Alt Zauche to Straupitz and visit the church conceptualized by the late architect, Schinkel. The linseed oil mill is also a great point of interest. Spend the night in or near Burg.

Today´s excursion will lead to the three different districts of Burg. You will have a wonderful view on the landscape of the Spree forest from the Bismarc Tower. Enjoy your time in the spreeforest thermal springs or make a boat trip on the spree.

Pass the Bismark Tower on your way to the Spree River and follow the course of the river to Cottbus. Take a break in the old fortress city of Peitz, widely known for its carp ponds and local history museum, ‘Hüttenmuseum’. Stay overnight in Cottbus.

Sehr schöner Urlaub
Tolle Strecken mit unterschiedlichen Landschaften. Allerdings sind die Strecken, der ersten 3 Tage nicht alle einsteigergeeignet und auch nicht immer Fahrrad geeignet (manchmal eher schmale Wanderwege oder Strecken mit tiefem Sand). Die Touren führen durch schöne Orte mit einigen Schlössern und vielen Kirchen hindurch. Die Tagesordnung sind mit einem E-Bike gut zu schaffen. Empfehlenswert ist in Lübbenau eine Kahnfahrt. Ab Lübben sind die Radwege alle super befahrbar.

Vielen Dank für Ihre schöne Bewertung. Es freut uns, dass Sie so eine gute Zeit auf Ihrer Spreewald-Radtour in idyllischer Natur erlebt haben. Leider gibt es auf den ersten Etappen keine alternativen Radwege, die sich entsprechend leichter radeln lassen.

Sehr schöne, leichte Radtour. Leider lag auf einigen Wegen wieder Granitsplitt. Dies führte wieder zu einem Plattfuß.
Eine sehr interessante Landschaft mit sehr viel Wasser.

Herzlichen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie so eine schöne Tour durch den Spreewald geradelt sind. Dass Sie einen Platten hatten ist natürlich ärgerlich. Nicht immer und überall gibt es aspaltierte Radwege, auch befestigte Waldwege, Sand und Schotter kommen dann und wann in der Natur vor - gerade im Spreewald. Wir hoffen, Sie haben trotzdem nur schöne Erinnerungen an Ihre Tour und kommen für Ihre nächste Buchung wieder auf uns zu.
