description: "This scenic tour takes you from Rabenau along the cycle path directly into the Dippoldiswalder Heide. After a challenging stage, you reach Malter and are rewarded with an unforgettable view of the dam of the same name. Two ice cream cafés invite you to take a short break. From the Malter dam, the route continues into the Paulsdorfer Heide. We then cross the last of the 3 heaths, the Höckendorfer Heide. A detour to the village center of Höckendorf with its zoo is definitely worthwhile. We continue our cycle tour with a long descent on the Borlas-Lübau connecting road and return to our starting point of Rabenau. This cycle tour leads along forest paths and public roads."
