Cycling day trip from Bremen to Bremerhaven

Ready for a leisurely ride from Bremen up to Bremerhaven? This nearly 71 km route takes you through the heart of northern Germany, mostly along smooth asphalt and quiet cycle paths, so it's easy on the wheels and the legs. You’ll leave the vibrant Hanseatic city of Bremen, famous for its UNESCO-listed town hall and the playful Bremen Town Musicians statue, and roll northward beside open fields and scenic stretches of the Weser River.

Most of your journey is on paved surfaces, so it’s great for road bikes. Expect gentle countryside, and be sure to stop for a riverside snack or coffee—places like Vegesack are perfect pit stops! You’ll barely notice the gentle climbs, with only around 180 meters of ascent. The route finishes in Bremerhaven, a refreshing port city known for its maritime museums and stunning views over the North Sea. It’s a fantastic ride for anyone who enjoys a breezy ride through German landscapes, topped off with some sea air at the end!
