By bicycle from Werder to Fichtenwalde

This route takes you from the charming riverside town of Werder (Havel) down to the peaceful village of Fichtenwalde, covering about 18.4 km of mostly paved paths. Werder is well-known for its annual Baumblütenfest (Blossom Festival) and its location on the Havel river, surrounded by water and orchards—a scenic place to start your ride!

The journey heads south on mostly quiet routes, winding through forests and small settlements. You’ll pedal past pretty lakes, fields, and pine woods typical of the Brandenburg region. Expect a little bit of climbing (about 120 meters of ascent), but nothing too daunting.

Most of the route (over 95%) is on smooth paved surfaces, with a blend of asphalt and paving stones, so it's suitable for almost all bikes. It’s a leisurely ride through tranquil countryside, finishing in Fichtenwalde—a sleepy, green hamlet known as a gateway to the expansive Beelitz-Heilstätten forest.

Perfect for riders looking for an easy day trip with a mix of nature, history, and quiet roads!
