Pirk Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Personally, the reservoir does not allow me. He is not dog friendly and seems very overweight. The bungalows are close together. Toddlers should not walk around outside without supervision, as there are no steep slopes other than a shield.

Well-developed cycle path, there is a nice playground at the dam and there is a snack bar that opens at 11 a.m

Food is good and the price is reasonable

Falkenstein–Oelsnitz Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Really a great bike path that leads from Oelsnitz to Falkenstein. In great shape and you can really "speed" with the racing bike.

Often lovingly decorated and with a guest book, this beautiful, covered picnic area awaits you. A wonderful place to take a break and linger.

Beautiful tour through the Syratal to Plauen. On the Elster cycle path to the Pirk dam, where the water level is very low due to construction work. On the Oelsnitz cycle path towards Falkenstein, it is also very nice to cycle on the old railway line. After Lottengrün, turn left towards Theuma. There is also an old railway line to …

Yesterday the camera, today the bike. Almost the same round as last Saturday, only this time there was a currywurst with fries at the Pirk. 😜
Happy May 1st to all of you and stay healthy. 🤗

Actually, this tour should go as far as Schöneck. But if you leave too late, you can't go that far
