Gita in bici di un giorno da Lipsia a Grimma

This scenic ride from Leipzig to Grimma is a great way to explore the Saxon countryside! The route is about 42 km long and mostly flat, with just a few gentle hills (you’ll climb a total of about 150 meters, so nothing too daunting). Most of the roads are paved and you’ll be rolling along on quiet country lanes, some smooth asphalt, and the occasional stretch of picturesque paving stones.

Starting from vibrant Leipzig—known for its artsy vibe, coffee culture, and historic music scene—you’ll quickly leave the city bustle behind. Watch the landscape shift to green meadows, peaceful river views, and tiny charming villages. Grimma, your destination, is a lovely old town perched on the Mulde River, famous for its medieval bridge and colorful old center.

Expect around 2–3 hours of relaxed pedaling, with plenty of spots to pause for photos or a snack. It’s a perfect weekend getaway or a leisurely day trip for cyclists who enjoy a dose of history with their fresh air.
