Spreewald Biosphere Reserve, Biosphere reserve in Brandenburg, Germany.

The Spreewald encompasses 1,500 square kilometers of waterways, meadows, and forests created by glacial activities during the last ice age period.

The reserve received UNESCO recognition in 1991 as part of a global network dedicated to protecting natural landscapes while supporting sustainable development practices.

The Sorbian people maintain their traditional language, festivals, and customs within the reserve, incorporating elements from both German and Slavic heritage.

Visitors explore the reserve through marked cycling paths and waterways, with information centers in Lübbenau, Burg, and Schlepzig providing guidance materials.

The network includes 300 interconnected channels navigable by traditional wooden barges, creating transportation routes between agricultural fields and settlements.
