Sortie rapide à vélo de Bannewitz à Albertstadt

This cycling route takes you from the peaceful town of Bannewitz, just south of Dresden, to the historically rich district of Albertstadt in the north of the city. The 18 km ride has some gentle ups and downs—expect a modest climb of about 53 meters, but you’ll be rewarded with twice as much descent, and enjoy easy rolling most of the way.

You’ll pedal mainly on quiet roads and paths (over 90% paved!), weaving through Dresden’s southern suburbs and green pockets, so city traffic should rarely disturb your ride. Along the way, you’ll experience a mix of residential areas and leafy passages—with just a brief stretch of gravel for a hint of adventure.

Your journey finishes in Albertstadt, home to impressive 19th-century military architecture and the fascinating Bundeswehr Military History Museum. Whether you’re a Dresden local or a visitor, this is an enjoyable and mostly relaxed urban ride that connects countryside calm with city character.
