It will take a few more years until it looks nice

Beautiful cycle path along the river

Anyone traveling along the cycle path along the emerging Cottbus Baltic Sea should briefly dismount here: The West Viewpoint offers a view of what was – and what is to come. Originally used as an open-cast mining lookout point, the small wooden hut with its metal staircase still stands in place. These days, you no longer see excavators, but a growing lake. The viewpoint itself is simple, but offers a covered platform with an information sign and a good overview of the western shoreline. The surroundings are currently barren and more functional than idyllic – a lot will certainly happen here in the coming years. Access is possible directly from the cycle path, although there is no bike rack. Anyone interested in landscape change, structural policy, or simply marveling at grand dimensions will find their money's worth here. There are no seating options, but the detour is worth it for a quick breather or a photo.

It's a very beautiful route, only the small bridges were tiring on the bikes.
