Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Mitte à Potsdam

Cycling from Mitte to Potsdam

Kick off your ride in the vibrant heart of Berlin, Mitte! With its iconic landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island, it’s a dazzling spot to start your journey. This ~42 km route heads southwest, gradually swapping the city’s buzz for leafy suburbs and lakeside glimpses as you pedal toward Potsdam.

You’ll spend most of your ride cruising smooth tarmac (hello, 67% asphalt!) on quiet roads and scenic paths—perfect for relaxed spinning. Expect a few stretches on paving stones and some light gravel, but nothing too rough. The route is mostly flat with a gentle climb or two, peaking under 55 meters, so it’s friendly for all fitness levels.

Rolling into Potsdam, you’ll be greeted by tree-lined streets and stunning palaces, including the famous Sanssouci. Take a well-earned break in its historic parks or grab a coffee in the charming old town before heading back. This is a must-do ride if you fancy mixing city sights, urban escapes, and the magic of Prussian history—all in one go!
