Excursión ciclista de un día de Bernau bei Berlin a Joachimsthal

This scenic ride starts in Bernau bei Berlin, a charming town just outside Berlin known for its well-preserved medieval city wall and vibrant weekly market. From here, you’ll head north toward Joachimsthal, covering just shy of 60 km with a gentle ascent of about 350 meters—so expect a good workout, but nothing too extreme. The majority of the route is on paved surfaces (over 90%) and winding along quiet roads and bike paths, making it a relaxed journey for most cyclists.

As you roll through the lush landscapes of Brandenburg, you’ll cross small villages, stretches of forest, and open fields. There are some fun stretches on paving stones—watch your bottle on those! The area is dotted with lakes and nature reserves, especially around your destination. Joachimsthal is the gateway to the beautiful Schorfheide-Chorin Biosphere Reserve, famous for its pristine forests, crystal-clear lakes, and wildlife—perfect for a post-ride stroll or a swim.

Pack a picnic, your camera, and enjoy the peace and green of northern Brandenburg on this fun escape from city life.
