Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Lauenburg do Hitzacker

Ready for a scenic spin? This ride takes you from the historic riverside town of Lauenburg down the Elbe to the charming old town of Hitzacker. The route is about 56 km long, mostly gently rolling, with a mellow ascent and descent—nothing too dramatic, so you can enjoy those riverside views.

You’ll be pedaling along peaceful tracks and paths, with most of the way paved or on smooth concrete. Expect quiet country roads, a few stretches of paving stones, and just the occasional dash of gravel. The Elbe meanders beside you for much of the route, and you’ll breeze through picturesque villages and tranquil forests.

Lauenburg itself is worth a wander before you set off—this “Town on the Water” is famed for its UNESCO-inspiring half-timbered houses. At the finish, Hitzacker awaits with its medieval flair, island-like old center, and cozy cafés perfect for a post-ride treat. Take your time—this route is as much about soaking up the scenery as it is about spinning those wheels!
