Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Magdala do Sulza

Ready for a scenic cycling trip through Thuringia? Your route starts in the small town of Magdala, known for its quiet atmosphere and laid-back charm. From here, you’ll roll east about 26 kilometers to Sulza—officially known as Bad Sulza—which is famous for its historic saltwater springs and spas.

The ride is a good mix of surfaces: most of the way you’ll enjoy smooth asphalt and paved paths, but there’s a fair amount (about 22%) of gravel and unpaved sections, so a sturdy bike is a plus. Elevation-wise, expect some ups and downs—over 300 meters of climbing and a bit more in descents—which makes for some fun and interesting terrain through forested tracks and calm countryside roads.

You’ll mostly avoid busy roads, instead cruising along bike tracks, quiet rural roads, and access ways with barely any traffic. Arriving in Sulza, treat yourself to a stroll along the Ilm river or a relaxing soak in thermal waters before heading back. This route is perfect if you’re into peaceful rides and want a taste of small-town Thuringian life!
