Excursión ciclista de un día de Wernigerode a Halberstadt

Set out from the picturesque town of Wernigerode, famous for its colorful half-timbered houses and the fairy-tale Wernigerode Castle overlooking the Harz. This leisurely 25.7 km ride heads northeast towards Halberstadt, cruising mostly on paved surfaces through a patchwork of quiet roads, paths, and the occasional stretch of track or cycleway.

With just over 60 meters of gentle climbing (and nearly three times as much descent!), the route is friendly for most fitness levels. You’ll wheel through stretches with a rural vibe and plenty of scenic fields, making it easy to find a spot for a snack or quick photo.

As you roll into Halberstadt, don’t miss its striking Gothic cathedral—one of the oldest in Germany—and the charming old town. This is a ride blending history and relaxed countryside; whether you’re looking for a destination coffee or just the joy of cruising, this route is a treat for the senses!
