We can only recommend this cycle path. Did it yesterday. A few spots on the asphalt have been damaged by the roots of the trees. Don't be put off by the initially poor condition of the Black Elster cycle path near Saathain. A nature reserve prevents asphalting for about 200 meters. Then it rolls again. 😏

The Black Elster Cycle Path is a 190-kilometer-long long-distance cycle route in southern Brandenburg and northern Saxony, with short sections also extending into eastern Saxony-Anhalt. The cycle path runs from the source of the Black Elster River at 317 meters above sea level to its confluence with the Elbe River at 69 meters above sea level, through the foothills of the Lusatian Mountains near Kamenz and later largely directly along the Black Elster's dike. It is marked with a magpie symbol.
