The asphalt isn't particularly good, with frequent root damage. Still rideable.

The cycle path on the northern shore of the emerging Cottbus Baltic Sea runs directly along the edge of the former open-cast mine. What today still looks like a construction site – sand, rubble, and a barrier fence – already gives an idea of the lake's future size. Especially on clear days, a wide view opens up across the water to the horizon. Wind turbines spin in the distance, the light plays on the still narrow expanse of water – a place between incompleteness and anticipation. The path itself is well-paved, mostly flat, but lacks any significant infrastructure: no bench, no kiosk, no shade. If you want to take a break here, it's best to do so standing up – but with a great view. Conclusion: Not yet a classic lake excursion – but an exciting stage for anyone who wants to see change as it happens. Ideal for a short pause for reflection on the edge of the future.
