Oder-Neisse Cycle Path Near Ostritz

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A beautiful section of the Oder-Neiße cycle path through the Neiße valley, directly along the river. The path from Hirschfelde to Marienthal Monastery is paved and is wonderful to drive.

Zittau Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

After Zittau had been almost completely destroyed in the Seven Years War by the Austrian army, the citizens began in the late 18th century with the reconstruction. Construction of the New Town Hall began in 1840. Just five years later, the impressive building, which was based on building plans by Karl Friedrich Schinkel, was completed and opened.

Scenic cycle path between Marienthal and Rosenthal

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Great section of the Oder-Neiße cycle path with great surface, which, however, historically changes to cobblestones at the monastery. The monastery complex is definitely worth seeing and has a place to stop for refreshments and a toilet.

Old Town Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Görlitz Altstadtbrücke bridge is mentioned for the first time in 1298. It was built with wood and had to be renewed again and again, because not only the burden of the commercial caravans paid its tribute, but also fire, floods and the effects of the war.
Today's Old Town Bridge was officially opened on October 20, 2004. Since then, the pedestrian bridge has historically connected the two parts of the European city of Görlitz / Zgorzelec.

June 10, 2025,Oder/Neiße 9. Etappe Tag 12 ( 10.06. )

Hello
After a lovely, hearty breakfast, we packed our bikes and cycled, or rather pushed, through town. We took a look at a few things.
Then we went to the Neisse River and then onto the cycle path. Beautiful cycle paths along the Neisse.
Once we arrived in Göritz, we first looked at the most important things and looked for …

August 5, 2025,Nr. 1 Zittau nach Rothenburg/Oberlausitz🚴🌦️

The first stage is complete. I took a look around Görlitz. Unfortunately, it rained heavily from Görlitz to Rothenburg. After a certain point, you can't get any wetter. So I pushed through and was still in a good mood.

It was enough for the first day. Dude 🚹 has to break in first. From Zittau first to the monastery of St. Marienthal. Very beautiful and fantastic location. After that I wanted to eat a deserved piece 🍰, but the monastery coffee was still closed. Doesn't matter. And on via Ostritz to Görlitz. Beautiful city with great restored houses and …

...following the trail of 2019, it is unfortunately noticeable again and again that the hospitality industry has had to take a big hit! 😟
But otherwise everything is the same as before...

A very beautiful tour with good to very good bike paths.
The Mariental Monastery is also worth a visit. In Görlitz's old town, you can cycle over many historic cobblestones. But you'll be rewarded with the many beautiful views and vistas, so you should plan time for that.
There are also plenty of refreshment points along the way where you …
