Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Leer à Emden

Set off from the charming town of Leer, known for its historic Altstadt with pretty gabled houses and stroll-worthy canals, and pedal your way north toward the harbor city of Emden. This route is about 30.5 km and almost completely flat—no real hills to worry about—which makes it a breeze for all levels of cyclists. You'll spend the majority of your time cruising along paved paths and quiet roads, soaking up the easygoing vibes of rural East Frisia.

There's plenty of peaceful countryside scenery along the way: wide open fields, wind turbines on the horizon, and the occasional grazing cow. With about three-quarters of your ride on paved surfaces, it's perfect for a relaxed day trip. Arriving in Emden, you'll roll right into a city famous for its maritime heritage, quirky Otto Huus museum, and lively harbor area—great spots for a post-ride coffee or fish sandwich. This route is pure North German cycling bliss—just watch for the occasional patch where surface details are missing, and enjoy the wide open skies!
