Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Lemwerder à Ritterhude

Get ready for a lovely ride from Lemwerder to Ritterhude! Starting in Lemwerder, a small town on the left bank of the Weser, you’ll quickly leave behind its shipbuilding roots and pastoral farmland. The route is smooth for nearly the whole way—mostly asphalt and paved paths—which means it’s great for road or touring bikes.

You’ll roll northeast through flat North German countryside, passing by dykes, fields, and maybe even a few grazing sheep. There’s hardly any time spent on busy roads, so you can really relax and enjoy the scenery. The ride covers just over 37 km, with only gentle climbs adding up to less than 90 meters of total ascent—hardly enough to break a sweat!

Finishing in Ritterhude, you’ll find a pretty town that straddles the Hamme River. It’s known for its half-timbered houses and quiet atmosphere, just outside bustling Bremen. If you have time, grab a coffee and soak up the peaceful vibe before heading back or catching the train home.

All in all, this route delivers a classic lower Weser cycling experience: easy, scenic, and stress-free!
