Elbe Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Very idyllic and beautiful views. With a racing bike you brake too often for leisurely cyclists or e-bikes who like to use the entire width of the cycle path. Beware of bottlenecks and curves that are difficult to see.

May 1, 2025,Auf ein Eis nach Altkötzschenbroda🚴‍♂️

Once again, the classic Elbe Cycle Path...
The landscape is as beautiful as ever: blooming trees, yellow rapeseed fields, colorful flower meadows. And, as expected on such a sunny day, the cycle path is well-frequented. There are also young racing drivers in their speed craze and plenty of electric warhorses, often in packs, and riding to their full potential... 🤨 …

June 14, 2023,Schlössertour, Bewegungstherapie an der Elbe

All right, if the doctors tell me to exercise more (also such a profane manslaughter argument, exercise is always good), fine, then I'll just do it. We started at the Bosel down the Elbe (even with wind support :-) ) in the direction of Meissen, where the Elbe then offered a magnificent mirror for a first click :-)). At the …

July 6, 2023,Fremdradeln an der Meißner Elbe

After Bohemian Switzerland, made a detour to Meissen. Since we both don't feel like my planned
"Pleasure hike in Meissen", we accepted the guesthouse's offer - bicycle rental. With someone else's bike it was a new experience, but on the Elbe without any problems and there was enough 🍻🍰🍷🔥 cake to enjoy.
But your own bike is already gold.

Simply roll on well-developed bike paths to Diesbar Seusslitz and back again - that's already fun in the weather😊🌞

As the title says, it was an exploratory tour along the Elbe with the aim of exploring parking spaces and an inn in Diesbar-Seußlitz for the next hike. Goal achieved!

September 6, 2022,2. Elberadweg: Dresden - Löbsal

It rolled well. The first 20 km without major interruption always along the Elbe. More or less in the middle of the meadows, the bike ran almost alone on super flat asphalt. Time to enjoy the view, time to unwind thoughtlessly, time to relax. Only every now and then cobblestone passages pull me out of my thoughtlessness as a driver. …

September 29, 2025,von Gruna nach Diesbar-Seußlitz

A very beautiful tour on a well-maintained cycle path with no inclines along the Elbe. It's naturally quiet between the Elbe meadows. There are many rest areas and a few restaurants, although almost all of them were closed during my tour, which was to be expected on a Monday in late September.

September 29, 2025,von Niederlommatzsch nach Gruna

The return journey from Diesbar-Seußlitz began with the ferry crossing and then from Niederlommatzsch. The cycle path here is also very well-developed and flat (there are a few hills in Niederlommatzsch until you reach the Elbe Cycle Path). However, the route on this side isn't quite as scenic as the route on the right. At the beginning, you ride on …
