The **listening tour along the border cycle tour** is a special cycle route in Germany that focuses on the historical course of the border between West and East Germany after the Second World War. It combines nature experiences with historical information and invites cyclists to learn more about the history of the division of Germany. The border cycle tour leads through a scenic area that is characterized by both nature and evidence of history. Various **listening tour stations** have been set up along the route where cyclists can use audio information to learn more about the history of the former border and life in the divided region. These audios offer a deep insight into the Cold War era, the effects of the Wall and the lives of people at the border. The route leads through the **borderland** and along nature reserves that have recovered after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The listening tour offers a mix of **historical sites, viewpoints and nature experiences**. It is often integrated into the former **Green Border**, which is a protection zone and today a nature reserve in which rare plant and animal species have been able to settle. On the listening tour, cyclists not only experience the history of the German-German division, but also the changes and re-blooming of nature and society after reunification. The route is divided into several stages that are well suited for day trips, making for a relaxing but educational bike ride.
