Paseo rápido en bici de Glauchau a Hohenstein-Ernstthal

Set off from Glauchau, a charming Saxon town known for its Renaissance castle and lovely views over the Zwickauer Mulde river. You’ll quickly leave the bustle behind, as most of your 19 km route to Hohenstein-Ernstthal unfolds along quiet roads and rural tracks—perfect for a relaxing spin.

Expect a bit of up and down: there’s a total climb of over 340 meters, giving your legs a decent workout, but nothing too extreme. The route mixes 62% paved and asphalt surfaces with a good share (around 35%) of gravel and unpaved stretches, so a hybrid or sturdier road bike will serve you well.

As you roll into Hohenstein-Ernstthal, you’ll notice the quiet town’s motorsport heritage—this is the birthplace of legendary car designer August Horch and home to the Sachsenring race circuit. Grab a coffee in the center, and if you’ve got time, check out the Horch Museum. All in all, it’s a scenic, varied ride ideal for cyclists who like a blend of country peace and a dash of local culture.
