Quick ride by bicycle from Leer to Weener

Ready for a scenic spin through East Frisia? Starting in Leer, a charming town known for its picturesque old town and vibrant harbor, you’ll wind your way south toward Weener. Expect a chilled-out ride—this 13.6 km route is mostly flat, with just a few gentle inclines (you’ll hardly notice the 7-meter ascent). The route is super bike-friendly, mostly on quiet bike paths and paved roads, making it ideal for a relaxed cruise, whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or just out for fun.

Along the way, you’ll enjoy classic northern German scenery: tidy fields, meadows, and maybe even grazing cows. With most of the route paved, you’re in for a smooth ride—just watch for some stretches where the surface changes to paving stones or concrete.

Your destination, Weener, sits along the Ems River and boasts plenty of 18th-century charm—don’t miss the historic windmill and quaint town center. All in all, it’s a laid-back ride between two lovely towns, perfect for a half-day cycling adventure!
