Spreewald

The Spreewald is a German biosphere reserve southeast of Berlin. Its forested areas and wetlands are crossed by canals fed by the Spree River. The Gurkenradweg is a cycle path through the reserve. In the town of Lübbenau, the Spreewald Museum features traditional crafts and the Spreewaldbahn, an old steam train. A museum at Schloss Lübben has cultural history displays in a castle dating back to the late Middle Ages.
