The Old Dresden-Teplitz Postal Road is one of the best preserved old postal routes in Saxony. If you look at the route of the Old Postal Road on the map, you will see that the modern traffic route of the A17 motorway, the Via Portica Bohemia, runs along almost the same route.

A beautiful bike tour on mostly paved roads, with occasional rough terrain and gravel. Fantastic weather, stunning views of the Eastern Ore Mountains and the Gottleuba Valley.
