Fourth stage
60 km, and no refreshment stops! 🤪
This is how we experience the Unterspreewald, the northern, smaller part of the Spreewald.
Up to the Neuendorfer See, it rolls mostly on little-trafficked country roads past meadows, fields, and smaller wooded areas.
Beautiful forest paths lead us along the

Gurkenradweg, third stage, enjoyable cycling on well-developed cycle paths, past forests, moors, streams and ponds.
Inviting rest stops and inns along the way.
Delicious Spreewaldplinse in the Bukoitza are an absolute recommendation.
The "Giant Church" in Straupitz, the whisky distillery and the Spreewald

Second stage through the Peitz pond landscape, the largest contiguous pond area in Germany.
Very different from the first stage in the Spreewald, but also very beautiful scenically.
The Jänschwalde power plant doesn't quite fit my "ideal landscape", but it's only running on 3 turbines now and is scheduled

Let's cycle the Gurkenradweg in 5 stages.
Start of the first stage at 8:24 AM at the free parking lot Am Burglehn in Lübben.
From Lübben to Burg, we ride through the typical Spreewald landscape, forests, canals, ponds, and lots of greenery.
The canal crossings, and there were quite a few, were challenging

Breakfast included, from the fridge. Everything was there. Bread rolls baked, coffee made, and refreshed, we head back to the starting point in Potsdam.
The route is rural.
To the north and south of the Anhalter Bahn is the longest cherry tree avenue on the Berlin Wall Trail, donated in 1996 by the Japanese

Today we're going to Berlin.
The route is rural up to Bernauer Strasse in Berlin, then, how could it be otherwise, urban. Surprisingly, cycling in the city is relaxed and safe too.
The first part of today's stage is interesting in terms of the eventful history of the Frohnau invalid settlement with beautiful

The last stage of the Gurkenradweg (Cucumber Cycle Path) is done.
Lots of road, few highlights.
At least we didn't "starve and die of thirst" today.
Along the way a restaurant and a bakery, in Lübben a large selection of gastronomy.
To finish, we treated ourselves to a delicious ice cream sundae in Lübben
