By bicycle from Fichtenwalde to Werder

This scenic cycling route takes you from Fichtenwalde, a charming village surrounded by pine forests southwest of Berlin, up to the picturesque town of Werder (Havel), famous for its blossom festival and beautiful old town on the river.

You’ll cover a little over 18 km on this ride, cruising mostly on paved surfaces (with a solid mix of asphalt, paving stones, and some concrete stretches). It’s largely a gentle affair, with a few minor climbs but more downhill than up—so the ride feels friendly even as you get closer to Werder.

The route follows mostly quiet paths and roads, so expect tranquil stretches through the Brandenburg countryside and scenic forest lanes. There’s hardly any busy traffic, making for a relaxing trip. Once you reach Werder, don’t miss a stroll along the Havel or a quick stop at a café on the historic island that’s at the heart of town. Perfect for a half-day outing and a taste of Brandenburg’s rural beauty!
