By bicycle from Oldenburg to Bad Zwischenahn

This relaxed ride takes you from the heart of Oldenburg to the charming lakeside town of Bad Zwischenahn. Oldenburg, known for its historic city center and lively markets, makes a great starting point—soak up some culture before hitting the path!

The route is a comfortable 19 km, mostly flat with only minimal ascent (just over 21 meters), and almost entirely on paved paths. You’ll roll on a lovely mix of asphalt and paving stones, passing through peaceful stretches of countryside and quiet village lanes. The majority of the way is dedicated cycling paths, so it’s great if you prefer a safe, car-free experience.

As you approach Bad Zwischenahn, take in the scenic views of the surrounding moorlands and, of course, the famous Zwischenahner Meer, a picturesque lake that’s perfect for a post-ride stroll or snack. Whether you’re in it for the gentle pedal or to explore two of Lower Saxony’s highlights, this ride is a local favorite for good reason!
