Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Ketzin/Havel à Potsdam

This scenic cycling route whisks you from the peaceful town of Ketzin, nestled along the banks of the Havel, all the way to the cultural heart of Potsdam. Covering just over 24 km, it’s a relaxed ride that rolls mostly along paved surfaces, quiet roads, and idyllic riverside paths. The route is quite gentle, with only around 78 meters of ascent and descent, so it’s perfect for a leisurely day out.

Ketzin is known for its charming ferry across the Havel—worth checking out if you have time before you start. The way to Potsdam takes you past open fields, through sleepy villages, and alongside tranquil water, letting you fully enjoy the Brandenburg countryside. When you reach Potsdam, you’ll be greeted by grand palaces, beautiful parks, and vibrant cafés—a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s just waiting to be explored.

Pack a picnic or plan a coffee stop in one of the villages along the way—this route is all about soaking up the scenery at your own pace!
