Bicycle concert – Island Hopping Sporty Edition

Tour 2 (30 km)

Explore the island status of Potsdam yourself! Always past the 14 bridges linking Potsdam to its surroundings on all sides. And building bridges is what the Bicycle Concert 2022 does thematically: between cyclists and disabled artists as well as to cycling top musicians, between eras, cultures, and styles, between music, bicycle, circus arts and urban sounds with self-made music. Concerts, guided tours, and viewings invite you to discover the island feeling by bicycle. Choose from three different tours always staying close to the water.

If the long way round is not for you, how about a trip to the island city of Werder near Potsdam: Island Hopping Sporty Edition (30km)? The route takes you in a wide arc past the Congress Hotel towards the South until you reach the island’s picturesque old town. The narrow streets mix the charm of a fishermen’s dwelling with Mediterranean Flair. When taking a closer look, the vulcanized fibre manufactury turns out to be an artists’ colony – creative people make their pieces here on the island of the industrious. On the way home you go through the game park right into Lenné’s garden area at the New Palace of Sanssouci and into the 19th century garden dreams of time-enraptured nature.
