Gita in bici di un giorno da Lipsia a Großpösna

Ready for a scenic ride? This route takes you from Leipzig’s vibrant city center southeast to the tranquil village of Großpösna. It’s about 26.6 km and mostly flat, with a few gentle climbs—perfect for a relaxed day trip or a slightly sporty outing.

You’ll head out of buzzing Leipzig, famous for its music scene (Bach worked here!) and cool cafés, then quickly swap city views for leafy green stretches and peaceful countryside. The ride uses mostly bike paths and quiet roads, winding you past the edge of the huge Leipzig Neuseenland lake district—a great spot if you fancy a detour or lakeside break.

Großpösna is a sleepy town that punches above its weight: it's home to the popular Störmthaler See lake and hosts the annual Highfield music festival. The route itself is about 85% paved, with some short gravel or cobbled sections—just enough to add a bit of adventure.

Pack a snack, enjoy the mix of urban energy and rural calm, and don’t forget to peek at the lakes along the way!
