Gita in bici di un giorno da Minden a Nienburg

This ride takes you from the historic riverside city of Minden to the charming town of Nienburg—a scenic journey of just under 56 kilometers. Minden, known for its impressive 13th-century cathedral and the famous Weser Aqueduct (where ships cross over a river!), is a great spot to start.

You’ll roll north through mostly flat countryside, enjoying about 90% paved paths and plenty of quiet roads and dedicated bike paths. Expect only gentle elevation changes along the way (about 80 meters up and 110 meters down), so you can just cruise and enjoy the scenery—think rolling fields, riverside stretches, and rural villages.

As you approach Nienburg, you’ll find yourself right in the heart of Lower Saxony’s asparagus country. Nienburg itself sits prettily on the Weser river, with a charming old town perfect for a coffee stop after your ride. All in all, this is a relaxed, varied ride that’s easy to enjoy for anyone looking to soak in the North German countryside!
