Gita in bici di un giorno da Wittenberge a Tangermünde

This scenic ride takes you from Wittenberge, a charming town on the banks of the Elbe River known for its striking railway heritage, down to the medieval town of Tangermünde, famous for its red-brick castle and beautifully preserved old town.

The route is just under 80 km and mostly flat, so it’s perfect for a relaxed full-day adventure. You’ll enjoy a smooth ride as about 96% of the way is paved, with most of it being asphalt and only a light dose of paving stones or concrete sections. With hardly any real hills (the highest point is just over 45 meters), you can just cruise and soak up the scenery.

You’ll be following quiet paths and tracks along the peaceful Elbe landscape, passing meadows, sleepy villages, and lots of open countryside—perfect photo ops! Wittenberge and Tangermünde each offer picturesque backdrops and plenty of history, so take your time to explore at the start and end.

Grab a picnic, pack your camera, and make a day of it—you’re in for a gentle, beautiful ride through some of northern Germany’s most charming riverside territory!
