It's great fun with a road bike. You make good progress and the traffic is limited.

The cycle path along the B5 near Elstal is particularly suitable for cyclists who want to travel quickly and on predominantly asphalted paths. The route connects Elstal with Dallgow-Döberitz and the west of Berlin, making it an important commuter and leisure route.

10.05.2026: The surface has been completely renewed, and the cycle path is now also wider, although still not open.

The cycle path is still in a condition suitable for road bikes. The safe entry at the end of Marwitz leads in the right-hand curve past a stiled gate into a side street and then immediately turns 90 degrees to the right.

Construction will take place on this paved cycle/pedestrian path until May 2026. The asphalt surface is being renewed due to extensive damage from tree roots. Currently, neither pedestrians nor cyclists are allowed to use this path. Cyclists must use the road or the parallel path in the forest (like pedestrians). No alternative is signposted.

Things aren't going well at all these days. Extreme root damage, with some significant "folding" of the surface. The only thing that helps is anticipatory riding and getting out of the saddle. The worst spots are marked with colored markings on the surface.
