Ready for a relaxed ride across East Frisia? This 25 km route gently carries you from Ostrhauderfehn—known for its tranquil canals and traditional Fehn settlements—up to the historic town of Leer, with its beautiful Altstadt and lively harbor.

You’ll start off surrounded by typical wide-open landscapes, crisscrossed with waterways and lined by tidy brick houses. Most of your ride is super smooth, with over 80% paved and asphalt surfaces, and hardly any hills to slow you down (the whole ascent is just 16 meters!). It’s a perfect stretch for an easy spin, with much of your way on quiet bike paths and peaceful country roads.

As you reach Leer, treat yourself to a break along the Leda River, or explore local cafés in the charming old town. Whether you’re after scenery, fresh air, or just a stress-free pedal between two classic East Frisian towns, this route is a great pick for a half-day outing. Don’t forget your camera—those wide-sky views are worth a snapshot!
