Schleifer Kirchspiel (route 1 district of Görlitz)

On the approximately 27 km long cycle path through the eight Sorbian villages, you can excellently discover the traditional life of the small Slavic ethnic group - the Sorbs. The unique folk music, played on the Sorbian bagpipes and three-stringed violin, lively traditions, wearing traditional costumes, and the preservation of the Sorbian language bring visitors closer to a very special region.

A suitable starting point for the circular bike route is Schleife with the Sorbian Cultural Centre and the early Gothic Protestant church. The cycle path leads you past the Groß Düben forest lake, the Halbendorf lake, and Trebendorf with its Reinert Ranch. The latter offers not only horse rides but also exciting quad tours. You can learn more about Sorbian life and customs during a stop at the traditional Njepila farm in Rohne. After these numerous experiences, you can conclude your bike tour in Schleife.
