Hiking trail steeped in history across Germany The Hiking Trail of German Unity connects the easternmost German city of Görlitz with the westernmost German city of Aachen over a distance of 1080 kilometres. The idea for this hiking trail was born after reunification in 1990, when members of the Meinerzhagen-Kierspe and Meißen Lions Clubs met near the city of Meißen. As the hiking route only uses existing and marked hiking trails, all 40 sections are easy to walk.

Moderate·278.3 km·Est. 24 hr+
Great cycle path in the Upper Lusatian Heath and Pond Landscape Biosphere Reserve. A great cycle tour that combines the cycle paths through the river landscape of the Neisse and Spree. There are many beautiful towns along the way that invite to stroll and take a break. The start is in beautiful Görlitz, very close to the railway station. Highlights: - St Marienthal Monastery - Görlitz - Lake Berzdorf - Great river landscape
