Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Wittenburg à Torgau

Get ready for a relaxed ride from Wittenburg to Torgau! This scenic route covers about 71 km, making it perfect for a full day’s cycling adventure. You’ll start in Wittenburg, a quaint village tucked along the western edge of Saxony-Anhalt, known for its serene countryside vibes and sleepy charm.

The route is pretty gentle, with minimal climbs—just enough to keep things interesting but nothing too strenuous. Most of your ride will be on paved or asphalt surfaces (around 88%!), and you’ll mainly follow quiet tracks and backroads, so you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the fields and forests around you. Just keep an eye out for the odd gravel or cobbled stretch.
