Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Lipsk do Chemnitz

This ride takes you from Leipzig—Saxony’s buzzing art and music hub—southwest to Chemnitz, a city known for its industrial history and exciting modern revival. You’ll cover about 111 kilometers, starting on mostly smooth asphalt and quiet roads, with a gentle mix of paved paths and a few scenic gravel stretches to keep things interesting. Expect some rolling hills: there’s roughly 789 meters of ascent, but nothing too intimidating for a reasonably fit cyclist.

Leaving Leipzig, you’ll cruise through the wide Saxon landscape, passing small villages and leafy stretches. About 15% of the route veers off the better-mapped roads, so have your navigation handy, but that just adds to the adventure. Chemnitz awaits with its lively squares and famous Karl Marx monument—perfect for a relaxing finish after your ride. This route is a lovely way to see the best of Saxony from the saddle!
