We’d like to introduce you to the most beautiful cycle routes in our region and also give you good reasons to ride them. And what better reason than a great event like a music festival, a concert or a theatre performance?

Our route suggestions cover the entire Leipzig region. You'll ride along the idyllic banks of the River Mulde, past extensive, rewilded lakescapes of former open-cast mines, through vibrant forests and flowering fields.

We’ve picked out a few special events that you can only find here. An old converted railway station, a stage in the middle of a lake or a sea of flowers for the Saxon State Garden Show 2022 – these are just a few of the highlights that await you.

The Tours always start at train stations within easy reach of Leipzig. Some of the destinations not only have exciting events but also accommodation options and campsites. This means you can easily turn your day trip into a wonderful weekend.

Whether you choose theatre, music or dance, we wish you an eventful Tour!
