The cycle path is in a catastrophic condition. There are numerous root damages along the route.

The sky glows reddish over the Oder-Havel Canal, reflected in the water. The road was still quiet, allowing you to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature.

Along the road is a good bike path with a smooth surface. It's easy to ride. Highly recommended: the bike paths through the forest in both directions.

You cross the canal on a bridge a few times. Because of the busy boat traffic, it's worth stopping every now and then.
