Rothenburg – Biehain – Horka fortified church – Niesky Zinzendorfplatz – leave Niesky to the north towards Uhsmannsdorf – Rothenburg

The route follows the Frog Cycle Path. After about 5 km you reach the watershed south of Geheege. This is a good spot for a relaxed break. The route then leads you past the Biehain forest lake to Horka. In Horka, we recommend a detour to the historically significant fortified church. Back on the Frog Cycle Path, you reach the town centre of Niesky after about 6 km. At Zinzendorfplatz – in the centre of town – you will find the Tourist Information. Attractive destinations include the famous "Conrad-Wachsmann House" or, on hot days, the forest swimming pool. From Niesky you have a choice – you can take the direct return route through the forest via Uhsmannsdorf to Rothenburg, or if you're still fit, use the road-accompanying cycle path to the Trebus junction.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

A visit to the fortified church in Horka or the Konrad-Wachsmann House, as well as a cooling off in the Biehain forest lake on hot days, is worthwhile.
