Elster Cycle Path Between Jessen (Elster) and Gorsdorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A wonderful section of the Elster Cycle Path with beautiful views of the Black Elster between Jessen (Elster) and Gorsdorf. Shortly before Gorsdorf the asphalt unfortunately ran out at around 200 meters! Here only gravel, but can also be ridden on a racing bike in summer when the ground is dry. As of 04/2020: the bike path has been largely newly paved and is excellent to ride. The 200 m of gravel have remained, but there is a junction just before it to the right towards Gorsdorf, so you can now drive around this unsightly stretch
