    Die Tour führt durch wunderschöne Landschaft - offenbar sind die Wege aus Betonplatten in diesem Gebiet Standard. Mit guter Federung und etwas geringerem Tempo ist es machbar - dann kann man die Frösche besser hören. Auch die Brücken gehören zur Gegend - mit Schiebehilfe oder Kraft bzw einem leichten Fahrrad, geht es besser…. Ansonsten wunderschöne Wege und freundliche Menschen!

    Der Gurkenradweg ist schön. Ein Stern Abzug, da die hier angegebene Route teilweise veraltet oder falsch ist, beispielsweise führt sie hinter Golßen in eine Sackgasse.

    Herrliche Rundfahrt im schönsten Teil des Spreewaldes. Auch bei Hitze gut machbar, da fast immer irgendwo Schatten zu erreichen ist. Es gibt schöne Einkehr- oder Picknickmöglichkeiten. Wir sind die Runde zum Schluss etwas anders gefahren (durch den Rohrkanal), weil dadurch das Wehr gemieden wird, das man je nach Wasserstand umtragen muss. Unbedingte Empfehlung zum Nachpaddeln.

    Die Wege mit den Betonplatten rütteln einen ganz schön durch. Ein Mountainbike ist zu empfehlen. Wir hatten ein Cityrad, dass war grenzwertig. Ansonsten schöne Runde, vor allem mit Kindern.

    Entspannte Radrunde, jedoch erschwertes Heraufschleppen der Bikes über die Fussgängerbrücken, Vollsperrung einer Pkw Brücke kurz nach dem Start in Lübbenau dadurch Umweg ohne vorherige Ankündigungen ( ist halt Brandenburg), Rückweg über Liepe Vollsperrung dadurch langweilige Umleitung über belanglose Felder ohne Spreewald-Wasser. Gesamt schöne Tour, leckere Einkehrmöglichkeiten, gute Wege auch ohne MTB. Sascha

    Eine sehr schöne und abwechslungsreiche Fahrradtour durch den Spreewald. - Meist auf Fahrradwegen oder ruhigen Nebenstrassen. Es gibt viel zu sehen, zu hören und zu riechen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
