A beautiful loop in the Finow Valley. Great views over the meadows. However, access to the lakes is rare. There were short paved sections, but nothing serious. I only met a handful of people along the entire route, all cyclists.

I just walked away from the rain today... but let's start at the beginning:
Today's tour started in Biesenthal at the Kaiser Friedrich Tower and took me to the lower tip of the NSG Finowtal-Pregnitzfliess. The entire loop took me along the Finow. First past damp and wet meadows and smaller moor communities. Here I could see and hear cranes …

So now I have to write something about the tour for the first time. The start was wonderful with a little drizzle. I was alone the whole way and the autumn forest is so quiet🫣 then after about 15 km I came to the bridge over the Finow. Unfortunately it is currently being built and there was no way across. …

A new day...a new hiking route.

We started at the Finowfurt Aviation Museum (if you're interested in the topic, it's certainly a good opportunity to take a tour of the museum), past a solar farm, and then left into the forest.

sun, weekend! I still speculate on a bit of loneliness and actually find it! Only a few cyclists near Pöhlitzbrück.

The fresh nature at these lakes is terrific. A clearing with countless liverworts! Wood wood sorrel and wood anemone blossom in close proximity. A dream loop!
