The curved roof of this beautiful and elegant tower is modeled on the wings of a crane. The wood for the tower (Douglas firs and larches) was felled in the Schorfheide-Chorin biosphere reserve.

Except for one section of the path (Fig. 14), that wasn't planned correctly by me...or the map was completely out of date, because this path was absolutely impassable by bike and …

Along the way, I found an open inn and an ice cream parlor—I didn't starve. Be sure to stop at Anita's Ice Cream Parlor. The observation tower was …

On this section of the route the landscape is no longer as terribly boring as the 100 km before it. At least occasionally small elevations appear on the Polish side of the Oder. Various water birds can also be seen very early in the morning and in the evening.
Since there won't be any train stations near the cycle path …
