This round of the Gherkin Cycle Path is less appealing compared to the routes in the Oberspreewald.

For the next few days we will be on the cucumber cycle path in the Spreewald. It is approx. 260km long and opens up almost the entire Spreewald. 4 - 5 days should be scheduled for this. The cycle path can be recognized by a cycling cucumber. We arrived in Radensdorf today. Is a small place 5km away from Lübben. …

July 8, 2023,Gurkenradweg West Kurve (1/3)

The cucumber cycle path takes the west curve from Lübben towards Golßen. Here you are outdoors all the time without much protection from sunlight, only a small section in a secluded piece of forest.

You visit many small villages along the way, on our day there was a festival in almost every village and therefore many attractions and opportunities for …

August 7, 2022,Gurkenradweg Etappe Lübben-Golßen-Lübben

We didn't have great expectations of the first stage, a loop from Lübben via Golßen and back to Lübben. No sights, no rivers like in the typical Spreewald. The assumption is that the path was specially led past the Spreewaldhof... But we have not regretted the "detour" at all, a highlight are the cucumber fields and the cucumber planes. Especially …

"In the Spreewald UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the trees of the mixed forests are reflected in the water."
The “Gurkenradweg” starts directly from our holiday home in Lübben and leads through and around the Spreewald. Its total distance of approx. 260 km can be ideally divided into 4 loops. On today's "West Loop" we experienced Brandenburg as a wide country with …

Extremely stupid headwind... after all, almost no rain. Almost deserted, in contrast to yesterday with gentlemen, alcohol, Schlager and Rammstein.
Kanow Mill can only be visited on Tuesdays at 10.00 am. Bought high-quality oils, the black cumin therapy comes on the joints.
In the glacial valley near Golßen, I could SWEAR that some kind of wild cat jumped across my …

September 9, 2023,Spreewald: Gurkenradweg Westring über Golßen oder die fast unspektakuläre Tour

The first day of our "Spreewald" / Brandenburg Tour, planned according to a suggestion from a "Komootler". I think it's very nice to be able to rely on others when you don't know the region.
The loop was part of a larger loop, but since we only arrived at midday, this loop was separated and driven separately - luckily!
The …
