Stage 5 of the Fürst-Pückler-Weg.
The fifth day's stage of the Fürst-Pückler-Weg from Doberlug-Kirchhain to Großräschen is all about the former open-cast brown coal mine and the associated renaturation. In Lichterfeld, for example, you can discover the visitor mine with its F60 overburden conveyor bridge. In Großräschen, today's stage destination, on the other hand, the controlled flooding of the remaining hole in the Meuro opencast mine creates a lake that is already 790 hectares in size. The tourist development started here years ago and so cyclists can discover the IBA terraces with the Lausitzer Seenland visitor center, the Seehotel or the vineyard with interesting new varieties, which was created in 2012.
Highlights:
- Lichterfeld: visitor mine, Bergheider See
- Sallgast: Sallgast Castle and Castle Park
- Großräschen: Großräschener See, IBA terraces, vineyard
