Gita in bici di un giorno da Magdeburgo a Halberstadt

Ready for a scenic day ride? This route lets you explore the pretty countryside between Magdeburg and Halberstadt—two charming towns in central Germany with loads of history.

You’ll set out from Magdeburg, famous for its stunning Gothic cathedral and the quirky, colorful Green Citadel designed by Hundertwasser. As you roll out of the city, the route quickly settles into a peaceful rhythm: plenty of smooth paths and quiet country roads, with over 70% of the surface paved and some fun stretches on paving stones and concrete. Expect just enough elevation (around 180 meters up!) to keep it interesting but not grueling.

Much of the ride cruises along paths and farm tracks, threading through quaint villages and rolling fields. There’s little car traffic, making it a relaxing pedal. After about 65 km and a few gentle climbs, you’ll arrive in Halberstadt—your gateway to the Harz Mountains, known for its beautiful medieval town center and impressive cathedral.

Overall, it’s a great blend of culture, nature, and classic German landscapes—perfect for a leisurely bike adventure!
