There are several stork nests here. They do not seem to be afraid because you can sometimes approach them to within a few feet. It's fun to watch them. Quietly take a break.

Great to watch the storks in the rearing - I do not live close to the clutter and dirt but :-)

In the middle of Alt Zauche, where cycle paths intersect, signposts jam, and one's foot almost enters the Spreewald, stands an old electricity pylon with a venerable extension: the stork's nest. Two white storks sit enthroned there like the landscape's honor guards – overlooking meadows, paths, and the flower-decorated Spreewald boat, which rests decoratively in the front yard.

You almost inevitably pass here when traveling on the Gurkenradweg (Gherkin Cycle Path) or one of its side branches – even if it's just to stop for a moment, take a look, listen to the clatter, or take a photo. Because the nest is not only prominent, but also inhabited.

Practical tip: It's worth stopping here for a moment. The intersection offers an overview, the stork's nest a moment of serenity – and if you like, you can pick up a Spreewald schnitzel or a cucumber snack in the village. There are also small rest areas not far away. Bike-friendly, authentic and full of Spreewald atmosphere.
