Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Markranstädt do Markkleeberg

This leisurely ride takes you from the charming small town of Markranstädt—famous for its scenic Kulkwitzer See—over to Markkleeberg on the southern fringes of Leipzig. The route covers just over 21 km and is pretty flat, making it perfect for a relaxed half-day adventure. The surfaces are mostly smooth, with plenty of paved and asphalt paths, and you’ll only encounter a little gravel and paving stones now and then.

You’ll cruise along a good mix of separated cycle paths and quiet roads, so it’s a pleasant journey without much traffic stress. Don’t forget to look out for the beautiful lakes and green spaces that pop up along the way—this area is known for its post-mining landscapes now transformed into popular recreation spots.

As you roll into Markkleeberg, you’ll find yourself close to the heart of the Leipzig Neuseenland, a region dotted with lakes, beaches, and cafés—ideal places for a break or a swim. Both towns have plenty of history, nice old churches, and friendly vibes, making them a great pair for a cycle trip!
