Note that there are many fallen trees between points 5 and 6. Not suitable for heavy e-bikes.

That's right 🙋‍♂️ It's a great bike path. I highly recommend it. Be careful of the narrow sections. Attention ⚠️ signs painted on the asphalt. 🚵‍♂️

On a small hill in the middle of the village of Brodowin stands the neo-Gothic Stüler building from 1852. In 2013, the church was completely renovated and its original appearance – both inside and out – was restored. Until 1848, the village had a Baroque church, which, however, fell victim to a fire. Shortly thereafter, the renowned architect Stüler was commissioned by the Prussian King Frederick William IV to rebuild it.

The Eberswalde City Lock is the oldest lock in Germany still in operation. It was built in 1831 and renovated in 2001 in accordance with historic preservation regulations. The original steel and wooden lock gates were reworked and reinstalled. The lock is a listed technical monument and part of the historic lock system on the Finow Canal. A boat dock is located directly at the lock. The terraced waterfront promenade invites you to take a break near the historic old town center.

Very nice path, unfortunately a bit unkempt with some trees lying across it.

Skill and equipment test. Can you get down without a permanent block on the rear wheel? (If not: shame on you!)
