Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Wittenberge do Hitzacker

Wittenberge to Hitzacker Cycling Route

This relaxed yet scenic ride takes you from the Elbe riverside town of Wittenberge to the charming old town of Hitzacker, covering about 68 km. Wittenberge is well-known for its beautiful riverside promenade and iconic clock tower—the perfect starting point for your pedal-powered adventure.

The route cruises mostly on paths and quiet roads, making for a peaceful journey through the gentle landscape of northern Germany. Expect a mix of surfaces: mainly paved and asphalt, though there are some gravel and concrete patches that keep things interesting. Don’t worry—the climbs are gentle, with less than 260 meters of ascent.

About halfway in, you’ll have the Elbe and wide meadows as your companions, with the chance to spot flocks of birds and the odd sleepy village. Hitzacker, perched on the banks of the Elbe, greets you with timber-framed houses and cobbled lanes, perfect for a well-earned rest and maybe a riverside coffee.

All in all, it’s a fantastic ride for those who love riverside scenery, easygoing cycling, and small-town charm!
