Excursión ciclista de un día de Delfzijl a Emden

This ride takes you from Delfzijl, a port town perched on the edge of the Wadden Sea in the Netherlands, all the way to the German city of Emden. Covering about 90 kilometers, this largely flat route is a breeze, with barely 30 meters of ascent—perfect for relaxing and enjoying expansive Dutch and German scenery.

From Delfzijl’s maritime vibe, you’ll pedal through quiet access roads and smooth paths, most of them paved—including long stretches of classic Dutch asphalt and some concrete sections. The route meanders through open fields, dikes, and sleepy border villages, so expect wide-open views (and maybe a bit of wind!).

Crossing into Germany, Emden awaits—a city known for its strong shipping roots and quirky museums like the Otto Huus. This ride is perfect if you love waterside towns and want a cross-border cycling adventure that mixes history with big sky landscapes. Don’t forget your passport, and maybe sample a local fish snack along the way!
