Day 2 is the big cut from the Spreewald to Upper Lusatia. After Lübbenau, the landscape stays low and wet at first: Raddusch, ditches, meadows, small bridges and the last edges of the Spreewald. Then the stage becomes longer and drier. The route runs southeast through Lower Lusatia, past villages, pine forest, open fields and the Spremberg area. At the reservoir, water returns briefly; after that, the ride is shaped by Lusatian distance, woodland and post-mining ground. Toward Weißwasser and Niesky, the road is not dramatic, but the length starts to count. Just before Görlitz, the profile rises again. The finish has weight: Neisse, old town, brickwork, towers, border. About 127 km, a long transfer day with a clear line.
