Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Jena do Naumburg

Set off from Jena, the vibrant university town nestled in Thuringia’s Saale Valley, and enjoy a picturesque ride north to Naumburg. The 44 km route delivers a nice mix of rolling hills (with gentle climbs totaling about 360 meters up and 379 meters down) and mostly paved surfaces—so smooth cruising is the theme, with just a few patches of paving stones and gravel to add some adventure.

You’ll pedal along plenty of quiet roads and tracks, winding through fields, sleepy villages, and woodland stretches. The Saale River and its lush valley will often keep you company, offering some classic central German countryside views. With minimal traffic, you can really relax and soak it all in.

Arriving in Naumburg, you’re rewarded with its UNESCO-listed cathedral and charming, historic town center—a great place to recharge at a café. Whether you’re a weekend explorer or just seeking some fresh air and scenery, this route offers a memorable ride between two gems of the region!
