Cyclists embark on an exciting journey of discovery through more than 150 years of lignite history on the Lower Lusatian Mining Tour. On the way through the south of Brandenburg and the north of Saxony, you will not only pass idyllic lakes, unspoilt floodplain landscapes, dreamy villages, dense pine forests and vast fields, but also modern coal-fired power stations and gigantic open-cast mining technology. Important industrial heritage sites such as the F60 visitor mine, the Knappenrode energy factory and the enigmatic Lauchhammer bio-towers bring the region's industrial past close enough to touch. Former working environments, technical history and the daily journey of the miners can be experienced up close. Viewpoints along the route provide a view of the imposing expanses and towering open-cast mining equipment in the few coal mining fields still in operation.

By the way: there couldn't be a more fitting companion along the way, because according to legend, it was the devil who buried the black gold in the Lusatian soil ages ago.
