    Ich bin in etwa mit kleinen Abweichungen die gleiche Strecke geradelt in 5 Tagen (plus 1 Tag Besichtigung Potsdam per Rad), allerdings startete ich in Potsdam und bin am letzten Tourtag in der Siedlung Schönwalde rechts weg auf den Berliner Mauerweg Richtung ehemalige KZ Außenstelle Falkensee, entlang des Glienicker Sees und bei Kladow mit der Fähre F10 über den Wannsee nach Potsdam (bzw. Teltow zur gebuchten Unterkunft Pension Fuchs, wo ich auch gut mein Auto in der Zwischenzeit stehen lassen konnte). Ich kann die Radreise wirklich jedem sehr empfehlen, danke für deine tolle Ausarbeitung und Beschreibung. Übernachtet habe ich in Brandenburg, Rathenow, Gülpe, Nauen und Potsdam (bzw. Teltow). Mein absolutes Highlight war der Sonnenuntergang, die Vogelstimmen, die Stimmung, der Nachthimmel in Gülpe!

    Ich hab nur die Schleife nördlich von Potsdam mitgenommen (bin von Berlin aus an der Havel lang, dann Wannsee, dann Potsdam) und ich bin ein bisschen unterwältigt. Die erste Hälfte (Osten) ist wirklich nett und viel im Wald, dannach kommt man an einem riesigen Einkaufszentrum vorbei, fährt an der Bundesstraße lang, fährt lange über eine Landstraße. Irgendwann ist Potsdam wieder ausgeschrieben, dann weicht man aber vom Weg ab, darf sein Fahrrad Treppen hoch und runter tragen, nur um an einer anderen Straße langzufahren. Die letzten Kilometer hab ichs aufgegeben und bin den Schildern nachgefahren. Vier Sterne weil ich ja nur einen kleinen Teil der Route gefahren bin.

    Nette kleine Tour, lohnt sich. Der überwiegende Teil der Tour geht durch Grünanlagen und Wälder, so dass man auch bei sonnigen Tagen gut fahren kann.
