Today a short relaxing tour around the 2 lakes, ending in the lighthouse in the evening. It had been a beautiful day.

We took advantage of what was probably the last weekend of summer to cycle around Lake Partwitz and Lake Geierswald, taking it easy. It couldn't have gone much faster; we haven't seen so many people here in years.
The lakes can handle many more visitors, but the early morning or evening hours are better for cycling.
The paths are well-maintained …

It was a heat battle at 37 degrees. It was 53 km but nice 🚴🏼🚴🏼🚴🏼🚴🏼 around the lakes

A family bike tour for enjoyment around the Senftenberger/ Geierswalder & Partwitzer Lake presented itself today.
With almost continuously very well-developed bike paths around the 3 lakes, a fantastic panorama presented itself.
At the "Rostiger Nagel" there are
refreshment stops with snacks & Biergarten.
Further on, we rode along the Lausitz Lighthouse on the Geierswalder See.
A tour to imitate.

Yesterday we were on the road again with the handbike and bicycle 👍 beautiful cycle paths in the middle of nature what more does a person need than moments like this 🎈🚲🦽
It would be desirable if there were one or the other toilet along the way. Otherwise we would love to come back 😊👍
