Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Eisenach do Erfurt

Looking for a rewarding long ride in Thuringia? Set out from Eisenach—famous for the UNESCO-listed Wartburg Castle and its ties to Martin Luther—and pedal east toward Erfurt, the picturesque capital of Thuringia rich in medieval architecture and cozy cafés. This scenic 70 km route is a great blend of rolling countryside and gentle elevation, with about 300 meters of climbing and slightly more descending as you head toward Erfurt.

You’ll spend most of your ride on paved surfaces (primarily smooth asphalt), winding through quiet rural roads, some dedicated cycleways, and the occasional forest track. Expect tranquil fields, small villages, and classic Thuringian scenery along the way—perfect for a relaxed day out or a sporty adventure.

Arriving in Erfurt, make sure to check out the impressive cathedral and the iconic Krämerbrücke (Merchants’ Bridge) lined with charming shops. Don’t forget to reward yourself with some Thuringian specialties in a local beer garden after a beautiful ride!
