Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Freiberg do Chemnitz

This scenic ride takes you from the historic mining town of Freiberg to the bustling city of Chemnitz, covering just under 47 kilometers with a fair amount of ups and downs (around 560 meters ascent and 670 meters descent). You’ll mostly cruise along quiet roads, with occasional stretches on gravel or woodland paths, so a sturdy bike is a good call.

Freiberg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is famous for its silver mines and charming old town—perfect spot for a pre-ride coffee. As you head south, expect classic Saxony countryside: rolling fields, small villages, and lots of fresh air. The max elevation hits just under 500 meters, so you’ll get some nice views on the way.

Approaching Chemnitz, the ride flattens out, and the vibe shifts to city life. Chemnitz (also called “Saxon Manchester") is known for its industrial heritage and sleek museums—ideal for a well-earned treat at a local café. All in all: a rewarding day trip, mostly on peaceful roads, blending culture, nature, and just a hint of adventure!
