Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Magdebourg à Wittenburg

Gear up for a scenic ride from Magdeburg to Wittenburg! Starting in Magdeburg, the vibrant capital of Saxony-Anhalt and home to the impressive Magdeburg Cathedral, you’ll roll south through the peaceful countryside and charming villages. The route covers around 108 km, making it a solid day in the saddle, with gentle elevation—so expect rolling hills rather than lung-busting climbs.

About 82% of the route is paved, mostly asphalt, but there are a handful of sections with paving stones, graveled tracks, and just a touch of unpaved roads to keep things interesting. You’ll enjoy a nice mix of dedicated cycle paths and quiet roads, with almost no busy roads or challenging traffic.

You’ll finish in Wittenburg, a lovely small town with a historic old center. If you have time, check out Wittenburg’s St. Bartholomew’s Church and grab a treat at a local café. Whether you’re in it for the scenery or the challenge, this route promises a memorable ride through the heart of northern Germany.
