Beautiful circular route in the Lusatian Lake District, Brandenburg, Germany
This route leads around the Senftenberger See and it is suitable for cycling and mountain biking, but also for hiking - and it is definitely family-friendly. Start is in Senftenberg. It goes along paved, well-developed paths without any incline, and it is possible to take a break at any time. The wonderful air, beautiful views of the lake and its surroundings increase the relaxation effect. Walking on the beach provides variety and conjures up a holiday feeling. Since this lake paradise is very popular, it has to be shared with the others, which is also interesting, because then you can watch the cyclists, skaters, sailors and anglers - swimming is of course allowed! There are refreshment stops in Senftenberg.
