A cozy place for a short rest, with a trash can. There is also a sign with the flora and fauna that represent life on the lake.

Only a short distance today, but there was a little more to see. Cycle path in good condition today. At the beginning again a lot of pure nature, great route through the slightly damp forest, just wonderful. Unfortunately, the Sorbian cultural center in Schleife was closed. Kromlau the bridge simply a must

The start and finish point is Hoyerswerda.
Along the mining region with now beautiful bathing lakes, we went to Bad Muskau.
Past the dreamlike Rakotzbrücke.


Super-developed bike paths and beautiful nature ;-)

Showing Translation

We take the train to Hoyerswerda and start our tour along the frog cycle path. Probably the biggest highlight of the day is the Rhododendron Park Kromlau.
