Excursión ciclista de un día de Dresde a Zgorzelec

Ready for an eastbound cycling adventure? Start your ride in Dresden, a city famous for its stunning baroque architecture and lively arts scene along the Elbe River. From here, you’ll pedal nearly 129 kilometers, mostly on a mix of quiet roads, tracks, and forest paths—expect a gentle mix of paved and gravel stretches under your wheels.

As you leave behind Dresden’s city buzz, the countryside opens up: rolling hills, peaceful villages, and plenty of green landscapes. There are a few good climbs (with around 930 meters of total ascent) to keep things interesting, but nothing too extreme. Most of the route keeps you in tranquil surroundings, making for a relaxing ride.

Your journey ends in Zgorzelec, a charming Polish town right on the border, separated from its German twin, Görlitz, by the Lusatian Neisse River. Take a well-earned rest and explore the cozy cafes or wander the picturesque riverside.

This route offers a blend of culture, scenery, and cross-border discovery—so pack some snacks, pump your tires, and enjoy the ride!
