Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Malbork à Elbląg

This route takes you from Malbork, home of the impressive medieval Malbork Castle (the largest castle in the world by land area!), to the charming city of Elbląg. Covering just over 44 km, it’s mostly a mellow ride with minimal climbing—perfect for enjoying the peaceful Pomeranian countryside.

You'll spend most of your time on quiet roads and tracks, weaving past farmlands and small villages. About 17% of the ride is paved (mainly asphalt and some paving stones), but be prepared: the majority of the surfaces are "missing" from the map’s database, suggesting mixed or unpaved stretches—so expect the occasional bumpy section!

As you near Elbląg, you’ll notice the gentle descent, cruising toward a city known for its picturesque Old Town and canal system. This laid-back route makes for a relaxed day trip, with plenty of opportunities to stop for a snack and snap some photos of the wide-open landscapes—or the mighty Teutonic castle in Malbork before you pedal away.
