From the bridge, there is a beautiful view of the harbor. Since Lübben is one of the main towns in the Spreewald, there are plenty of tourists here too. If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the wrong place.

The 8.30 x 2.20 meter object made of wood was initiated on behalf of the Tourism Association Burg and Surroundings e.V. to make this beautiful spa town widely visible. A good spot for a souvenir photo.

Anyone cycling in the Spreewald should look up more often – not just for the sun, but also for the storks. A majestic nest sits perched on a simple metal platform, high above the treetops. A white stork stands in it, motionless as a statue. Perhaps on guard duty, perhaps meditating – you never know. One thing is certain: it belongs here. The region is considered rich in storks, and that's no coincidence. The branching waterways, moist meadows, and abundant food make the Spreewald a five-star stork habitat. The nests – often on artificial platforms like this one – can be seen from afar. A quick stop is always worthwhile: If you're lucky, you might even spot young birds or a clattering greeting ritual. For cyclists, this is a quiet, dignified moment – in the midst of nature, away from the major attractions. Not a place to linger, but a place to pause. And perhaps to silently marvel at how cleverly animals choose their vantage points.

If you've ever wanted to experience how relaxing a straight line can be, the Nordumfluter cycle path is the perfect place for you. The path runs parallel to the canal of the same name – a straight ribbon through meadows, with expansive views and a well-maintained asphalt surface. Ideal for touring bikes, e-bikes, or relaxed family outings. Especially on hot days, the open landscape has an almost meditative feel. Accompanied by the babbling of the canal, you cycle through the Spreewald Biosphere Reserve without being interrupted by the hustle and bustle of tourists. Those seeking peace and quiet will find it here. Those who want to cover distance can do so too. Every now and then, forks invite you to take small detours – for example, to the locks or rest stops. Benches are provided at regular intervals, usually with beautiful views of the water. An ideal section to really take a deep breath.
