Excursión ciclista de un día de Bremerhaven a Cuxhaven

Set off from Bremerhaven, a lively port city with a rich maritime history, and head north along a mostly paved, easy-going cycling route to Cuxhaven. The ride covers just over 48 km, following quiet roads and peaceful paths, with only gentle ascents and descents—perfect for a relaxed day’s ride. You’ll pedal through the flat, wide-open landscapes of northern Lower Saxony, passing dykes, green meadows, and occasional glimpses of the Wadden Sea.

Most of the surface is asphalt or pavement, so you won't need a mountain bike, but be prepared for a few stretches on gravel and concrete. The journey has a lovely rural vibe, and with so much of it on dedicated paths and quiet roads, you can really soak up the scenery.

Arriving in Cuxhaven, you’ll reach a gateway to the North Sea and one of Germany’s best spots for exploring tidal flats or catching a ferry to the island of Helgoland. Both towns are steeped in seafaring culture—so why not reward your ride with some fresh seafood at the finish?
