The section between Käbschütz and Leutewitz leads along a small stream through a green, partially shaded valley. The path is quite narrow and certainly not suitable for racing bikes, but definitely worth seeing.

Meissen Market Square

Highlight • Historical Site

Many old houses and the cobblestones take you back in time. The restaurants offer a varied cuisine. Many small shops offer their goods for sale. Take a look, everyone will find something here and not always just kitsch.

We started at the train station in Meißen's old town with the audacious idea of a quick trip to the market. Theoretically, it sounds charming, but in practice, there's no child-friendly bike path from the station towards the town center. Why, remains a well-kept secret of urban planners.

Today, due to the wind and time constraints, we were supposed to tackle the upper loop of the Meissen Eight. Naturally, the battery was almost empty, and we had to pedal hard. It wasn't a big deal; we even rode a little further than planned. Late summer is causing everything to bloom, and there are plenty of apple, pear, and …
