Neiße Weir and Hydroelectric Power Station Forst (Lausitz)

Oder-Neisse Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

(Once again) a great section on the Oder-Neisse cycle path (D12) with a great surface, close to the river and quiet and without cars. A pleasure! 👍

View of Muskau Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle was destroyed in 1945 and was a ruin. You could not imagine that the castle would be rebuilt again. The construction was a tremendous financial and craft achievement.

Maybe it would be an idea to combine all of these highlights from the pine forest at the military training area into ONE section? Because as MaestroG writes: the whole …

May 30, 2025,ONR 7. Etappe - Von Rothenburg/Oberlausitz nach Forst

Today's stage runs along a fantastically well-maintained cycle path. The climbs and headwinds are truly enjoyable. It's a beautiful tour through stunning scenery and fascinating locations.

Very good bike paths on the tour. Not many climbs, just a brief 10% gradient. In Bad Muskau, it's very nice to cycle through the beautiful park and admire the beautifully reconstructed castle.
If you're hungry and interested, you can take a short detour over the Neisse Bridge to the Polish Market.
Until Forst, there's not much new to discover, …

A stunningly beautiful route, and luckily the longer section led through a wonderfully cool forest. The last few kilometers along the dike and in the sun were truly challenging. Having enough water was paramount.

August 6, 2025,Nr. 2 Rothenburg/Oberlausitz nach Forst (Lausitz)🚴🌪️☀️

Today we set off on the second leg. Finally, the weather was nice, even though it was chilly and very windy. But with the e-bike, it wasn't a problem. It was the most beautiful tour so far. Prince Pückler Park was especially beautiful. But the last stretch along the Neisse River was also fantastic. I highly recommend it.

A fantastic tour with a great view of the Neisse. Almost the entire route is super smooth asphalt and runs away from cars. There were a few places to stop for refreshments and for a Sunday with great weather there was not much going on. I can only recommend the tour!

June 12, 2021,1. Etappe, Step 2 – Von Rothenburg nach Forst

It went on, daily goal at least 120 km, wants to arrive in 5 days. The second part of the bike tour was also great. The highlight is definitely the Fürst Pückler Park in Bad Muskau. And who would have thought that there was a ski jump on the Oder-Neisse cycle path. Unfortunately, the photo does not reflect the depth. …

July 8, 2024,Oder-Neiße-Radweg Etappe 2: Von Rothenburg nach Forst

Completely different in character to the first stage: a lot of it through pine forests and along the edges of forests and fields. Towards the end of the tour, after crossing under the A15, the cycle path leads almost exclusively along a flood embankment, which can be a sweaty affair at over 30°C and with a headwind.
