If you've ever wanted to experience how relaxing a straight line can be, the Nordumfluter cycle path is the perfect place for you. The path runs parallel to the canal of the same name – a straight ribbon through meadows, with expansive views and a well-maintained asphalt surface. Ideal for touring bikes, e-bikes, or relaxed family outings. Especially on hot days, the open landscape has an almost meditative feel. Accompanied by the babbling of the canal, you cycle through the Spreewald Biosphere Reserve without being interrupted by the hustle and bustle of tourists. Those seeking peace and quiet will find it here. Those who want to cover distance can do so too. Every now and then, forks invite you to take small detours – for example, to the locks or rest stops. Benches are provided at regular intervals, usually with beautiful views of the water. An ideal section to really take a deep breath.

The festival grounds in Burg (Spreewald) are the most important central space in the Spreewald community. As part of the future spa promenade, it will be flanked by a pergola. As a new space for strolling, the pergola stands out from its surroundings and offers new qualities of stay. The large open space is divided into a paved festival ground in front of the stage and an existing parking area, modified at the edges.

Cycle path in a beautiful landscape. Along the Spree and the Nordumfluter, however, it is very narrow. Watch out for oncoming traffic!

Nice cycle path on the dyke. No shade and lots of headwind :) But of course it's a great cycle path, no inclines and always along the Spree.
