Along the Mutzschener water there is a wonderful off-road route on the old route of the narrow-gauge railway Mügeln-Neichen.

"The narrow-gauge railway Mügeln – Neichen is a Saxon narrow-gauge railway. The approximately 24 km long line, opened in 1888, connected Mügeln via Wermsdorf and Mutzschen with Neichen. It was primarily used for goods traffic in the hilly agricultural region, mainly for the sugar beet harvest certain importance. Between 1967 and 1972, the majority of the line was gradually shut down, the section from Mügeln to Glossen is still in operation today. " - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slimspurbahn_M%C3%BCgeln%E2%80%93Neichen

This section thus includes the Cannewitz-Wagelwitz-Böhlitz-Roda stages. At the end of this, a rest area for cyclists was recently installed.

This is where the MER - Mulde-Elbe cycle route turns left.

That is why a small part of the road towards Mutzschen has already been developed through asphalt.
