Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Hanovre à Lehrte

Looking to explore the area between Hanover and Lehrte by bike? This 21.5 km ride is a great way to enjoy Lower Saxony’s flat landscapes and mixed urban-rural scenery. Starting in Hanover, the bustling state capital known for its lush city parks and vibrant culture, you’ll roll eastward along mostly paved surfaces—think smooth asphalt and the occasional old-world paving stone.
