Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Zgorzelec à Łęknica

This cycle route takes you from Zgorzelec, a charming Polish border town along the Neisse river (just across from Görlitz in Germany), up to the scenic small town of Łęknica, known for its proximity to the UNESCO-listed Muskau Park.

The ride is about 65 km, mostly on paved and quiet surfaces, perfect for a relaxed day trip. Expect a gentle mix of country paths, stretches of tranquil asphalt, and a bit of gravel—so a trekking or gravel bike is a solid choice. You’ll wind through peaceful forests and fields, and there’s a fun mix of natural ups and downs to keep things interesting.

Zgorzelec’s historical buildings and riverside cafes make a cozy starting point. Arriving in Łęknica, take some time to explore Muskau Park, famous for its beautiful English gardens sprawling across the Polish-German border. Whether you’re into history, nature, or just a good roll through the countryside, this route makes for a varied and memorable cycling adventure.
