Cycling

The tour around Lake Senftenberg guarantees an excursion full of discoveries. The focus is on the striking nature reserve island in the lake, which you can view from different directions.

The passenger ship Santa Barbara glides over the water and offers you the option of shortening part of the route. A short detour to the Koschen Canal, the first navigable waterway in the Lusatian Lake District, which connects Lake Senftenberg with Lake Geierswalde, is also recommended.

This tour is suitable for people with reduced mobility and is therefore suitable for handbikes.

Senftenberger See Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

176 steps to the top, but the climb is worth it. Wonderful view of the entire surrounding area, especially of the lake and the island. From below you don't really see the whole island in its entirety with its arms and bays, but from above it's just beautiful, such a spot of untouched nature.

There is a lot to see and experience on the varied circuit. From all sides you have a good view of the striking nature reserve island in the lake. The passenger ships "Santa Barbara" and "Aqua Phönix" glide across the lake and also offer cyclists the opportunity to shorten part of the way. A longer stop is recommended in the …

First short tour with dog and trailer. A real experience! Our Lua didn't think it was that funny. Only the dog beach she found great!

The ship with my guests was too fast, so I had to hurry to get back to the dock in time. Lunchtime snacks and coffee stops are also important.

On to the last tour around Lake Senftenberg for the time being 😢... Due to the wind, the waves even had small foam crowns, almost a Baltic Sea feeling 💖. The cycle paths are fantastically developed. Not only optimal for handbikers like me 🦽🚲
How fortunate that those responsible have decided to create a lake landscape in the former opencast …
