Excursión ciclista de un día de Leipzig a Delitzsch

This scenic ride takes you from the vibrant city of Leipzig up north to the charming town of Delitzsch. Starting out in Leipzig—a city famous for its rich musical heritage and lively arts scene—you’ll quickly leave the hustle behind and head into the serene Saxon countryside.

The route is friendly for all levels, mostly flat, with just a few gentle climbs and easy descents. You’ll roll along a combination of smooth cycleways and quiet country roads, with over 96% of the path paved—so it’s a comfortable journey. About 42% of the route is dedicated cycleway, so expect safe and pleasant pedaling nearly the whole way.

After roughly 29 kilometers, you’ll arrive in Delitzsch, known for its well-preserved old town and the beautiful Baroque Delitzsch Castle. If you have time, grab an ice cream or explore the cobbled streets before heading back or hopping on a train. It’s a great day out for anyone looking to escape the city and enjoy some fresh air!
