Tips

Beyond the Horizon

July 21, 2025

Anyone following the Gurkenradweg (Cucumber Cycle Path) or simply looking for a quiet, scenic stretch will find what they're looking for on the way to Alt Zauche. The cycle path leads along narrow asphalt strips, flanked by birch and old deciduous trees that provide welcome shade on hot days. Meadows open up to the left and right, where cows graze peacefully and—with a little luck—you might even spot storks searching for frogs or insects among the animals.

The path is flat, easy to navigate, and suitable even for less fit cyclists. On weekends, it's busy but never crowded—ideal for letting your eyes wander and slowing down. Anyone who embarks on this section will experience a piece of a true biosphere reserve: unpretentious, pristine, and authentic. A photo stop is almost inevitable—be it for the cows, the storks, or simply for the play of light between the leaves.

Shortly before Alt Zauche, the view widens, the path opens up, and around a bend lies the village – nestled in green meadows, with lovingly tended gardens and the characteristic stork's nest on the mast. Those who arrive here have gained more than just a milestone – they have captured a small dose of Spreewald soul.
