**Let's catch the last bits of the summer sunlight on a bike ;)** As the beautiful Berlin summer slowly fades away, I'm inviting everyone to join me for a nice sunset after-work ride in East Berlin along the Spree. We're gonna bike for 11.5 km from Ostkreuz through Rummelsburger See and Treptower Park, down to the Insel der Jugend, then over to Kreuzberg and down the canal into Neukölln. We'll finish our ride at Silverfuture for some socializing and drinks around 19:15. I'm planning for about a 1-hour ride. Flat, mostly car-free, with an easy pace of 15–18 km/h. You are welcome with any bike you have: city bike, Swapfiets, etc. :) This is my very first event, so I'm a bit scared and excited, but I'm pretty sure we're gonna have a great time!!! * **Meeting point**: Ostkreuz, [Sonntagstraße side, under the railway bridge](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ostkreuz/@52.5031469,13.4692067,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x47a84ef0a0f0b9b9:0x5f322a788486640a!8m2!3d52.5031469!4d13.4692067!16s%2Fm%2F025_x61?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDkxNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D).

Borsig! – Berlin's Locomotive King by Bike

Borsig! – Berlin's Locomotive King by Bike

Sun, Sep 27, 10:00 AM
From Berlin cycle and walk
4.9

**Borsig! – Berlin's Locomotive King by Bike** **Time:** 12:00 - Midday **Start:** Hamburger Bahnhof – Main Entrance **Distance:** 30 km **Suggested contribution:** €5 This week we'll be following the story of **August Borsig**, one of the men who helped turn Berlin into an industrial powerhouse—and the company that became Europe's largest locomotive manufacturer. We'll cycle across Berlin following Borsig's remarkable journey from a small factory outside the old city walls, through the industrial landscape of Moabit, to the enormous works in Tegel. Along the way we'll see how the requirements of heavy industry pushed factories further and further away from the city centre, and how each move created new industrial landscapes, transport connections and workers' housing. We'll finish at the magnificent **Borsigwerke in Tegel**, beneath the famous Borsigturm. **The Tour** We will follow the story of Borsig through **three generations of factories**. We'll begin near the former Borsig works on **Chausseestraße**, where August Borsig established his factory in 1837. Just four years later, the first Borsig locomotive left the works. The company rapidly expanded, becoming one of Europe's leading locomotive manufacturers. But there was a problem: the factory was becoming trapped inside a rapidly growing city. We'll cycle north and west towards **Moabit**, where Borsig began expanding in the 1840s. Here the company established an ironworks, boiler works and machine factory beside the Spree, taking advantage of the waterway and the growing railway network. By the middle of the nineteenth century, much of Borsig's production had moved here. This gives us the opportunity to explore one of the great stories of Berlin's industrial development: **why did factories leave the city centre?** We'll look at the relationship between industry, transport, land prices, workers and the waterways that allowed heavy materials to move around the city. Finally we'll continue north to **Tegel**, where Borsig built a completely new factory from the 1890s onwards. Production began here in 1898, on a huge site designed specifically for modern industrial production. The factory even had its own harbour for bringing in raw materials. Here we'll explore the surviving **Borsigtor, factory halls and Borsigturm**, the extraordinary 65-metre tower built in 1922–24 and Berlin's first office high-rise. We'll then finish by exploring **Borsigwalde**, the workers' settlement created alongside the new factory. Borsig needed thousands of workers, but there wasn't enough housing in Tegel, so the company helped create an entirely new neighbourhood. Its surviving streets provide a fascinating glimpse into the social side of industrialisation. We'll finish with a well-earned beer together in Tegel. I am an accredited tour guide in Berlin, specialising in telling stories about the city's industrial heritage. I ask for a contribution of **€5** to organise the tour and share my knowledge. **Disclaimer:** Please note that all participants attend as group members, not as customers, and are responsible for their own safety. Please read the group description in full for an explanation of the terms and liabilities. **The Cycling** This is a gentle-paced sightseeing ride rather than a sporting event. 🚲 We'll cover around **25–30 kilometres**, with frequent stops for stories, photographs and discussion. Anyone with a decent bicycle and experience cycling around Berlin should be comfortable on this route. The route is predominantly on normal Berlin streets and cycle paths, with plenty of opportunities to stop and explore. **What to Bring** 🚲 Spare inner tube suitable for your bike 💶 Cash for drinks or snacks 🌧️ Waterproofs (just in case!) ☀️ Suncream 🥪 Water and snacks 😊 Curiosity and a sense of adventure **Highlights** 🚂 Discover the story of **August Borsig**, Berlin's "Locomotive King" 🏭 Visit the site of Borsig's original factory on Chausseestraße and discover the industrial district once known as **Feuerland** 🔥 Learn how Berlin's first generation of heavy industry transformed the area outside the old city walls 🌊 Explore Borsig's move to **Moabit** and discover why access to the Spree was so important for heavy industry ⚙️ See where Borsig produced the machinery, boilers and components that made its locomotive production possible 🚆 Follow the story of how Borsig became one of Europe's largest locomotive manufacturers 🏗️ Discover why Borsig eventually abandoned both its central Berlin and Moabit factories and moved to the outskirts 🏭 Explore the enormous surviving **Borsigwerke in Tegel** 🚪 Admire the spectacular **Borsigtor**, designed to make the factory look like a monumental medieval gateway 🗼 See the **Borsigturm**, Berlin's first office high-rise and one of the great symbols of the city's industrial heritage 🏘️ Explore **Borsigwalde**, the workers' neighbourhood built alongside the factory 📖 Discover how factories created entire communities of workers, housing and infrastructure 📸 Fantastic photography opportunities among some of Berlin's finest industrial architecture 🍺 Finish with a relaxed drink together in Tegel I estimate the cycle tour will take around **3 hours**, including plenty of stops for stories and discussion. Hope to see you there! **Simon**

Cycle & dine - Harvest festival in Kuhhorst

Cycle & dine - Harvest festival in Kuhhorst

Sat, Sep 26, 7:06 AM
From Berlin Cycling
4.9

========== FACTS ========== ROUTE: Paulinenaue > Kuhhorst > Nauen LEVEL: Easy peasy DISTANCE: 38ish kms MEETING POINT: 08:50 - Berlin Südkreuz ========== FACTS ========== ========= DETAILS ========= **ROUTE:** Autumn is knocking on the door and harvesting is more or less done. So this is the time to thank whomever is responsible for the crop by celebrating Harvest festivals. This time we visit [Kuhhorst](https://diekuhhorster.de/erntedankfest/), an inclusive Farm north east of Berlin. Some of you may know them from their organic products which are sold in Berlin as well. Starting in Paulinenaue we will also pass a very lovely former railroad embankment with (hopefully) very colorful trees around. Arrived in Kuhhorst after about 20km we enjoy the animals (alive and on the plate) and all the activities offered there ([see website](https://diekuhhorster.de/erntedankfest/)). To avoid cycling in too much darkness we head back the remaining 15km at around 16:30 at a relaxed speed. **SPEED:** Leisurely around 16km/h, at least if the wind doesn't come from the front. This is like "Being able to see the details on the side of the road and enjoying the view in general… and have a chat." **DISTANCE AND TERRAIN:** This is an about 38ish km ride, with mainly mixed but also some solid or soft ground. In general: Bikes with thin tyres (Race bikes, Road bikes, Fixies), rented bikes (Uber, Swapfiets) or any special bikes (Folding bikes, BMX etc.) are not suitable! You won't have fun, trust me! And if you want to bring Kids or Animals please get in touch before! **MEETING POINT:** 08:50 - Berlin Südkreuz, at the ticket machine right after the NORTHERN moving staircase (facing the TV-Tower. I have a blue Villiger Trekking bike. But you can hop in at any other station if you want (and dare). **TICKET:** It is 6,30 way out / person and the same way back, so it doesn't make much sense to organise a BBT. The Deutschlandticket is valid. And don't forget your "[24-hour bicycle VBB network](https://www.vbb.de/en/tickets/tickets-for-your-bicycle/24-hour-ticket-bicycle/)"-ticket which is about 7,50 EUR. **WAY OUT:** 09:06 - dep. Berlin Südkreuz, RE8 from platform 8, 10:08 - arr. Paulinenaue **WAY BACK:** 17:59 - dep. Nauen, taking RE8 18:51 - arr. Südkreuz **RECOMMENDATIONS:** Check the train schedule in the morning! The DB loves to stir up the plans by changing trains on short notice! If anything happens the Meeting point is the starting point of the cycling. While we'll stop somewhere for a lunch and/or coffee please always bring your snacks but especially some drinks along! And, PLEASE make sure your bike is in a proper state! Check your tyre pressure and oil the chain! Does your light work? Having a toolset is highly recommended and a spare inner tube to fix a flat tyre a big plus! While we might be able to help in some circumstances please think about what happens if we can't! Thank you! Bringing special equipment (Helmet, safety vest etc.) is NOT required but welcome if you feel more safe using it. ========= DETAILS =========
