Giro veloce in bici da Jork a Buxtehude

This scenic cycling route takes you from Jork, right in the heart of the picturesque Altes Land—famous for its endless apple orchards—all the way down to charming Buxtehude. The ride covers just under 11 kilometers and is mostly flat, with gentle ups and downs (just enough to say you’ve done some “climbing,” but nothing too intense).

Nearly the entire route is paved (mostly smooth asphalt), and you’ll spend most of your time cruising along quiet paths through the countryside—perfect for a relaxing spin or family ride. As you leave Jork, take a minute to enjoy the traditional half-timbered houses and maybe grab a local apple if it’s the season.

The route glides into Buxtehude, a storybook old town with cobbled streets and the whimsical tale of the race between the hare and the hedgehog. Treat yourself to some coffee and cake at one of the many cafés before heading home. All in all, this is a perfect low-stress ride through the land of apples and fairy tales!
