Elbe Gate of Hartenfels Castle

Highlight • Castle

Architecturally fantastic is this access to the interior of the castle from the Elbe side. It is located directly on the Elbe cycle path, although you have to overcome a few small steps. The portal is definitely worth seeing.

July 26, 2026,Von Torgau nach Riesa
Today in "pleasure mode" with fewer kilometers. It was really fun. The route offered more along the way than expected. The weather also suited us. Therefore, an absolute recommendation. Let's see how tomorrow goes...

Our 4th stage on the Elbe Cycle Path led from Torgau to Riesa. Highlights in Torgau are the state horticultural show, the castle and the bear pit integrated into the magnificent building. In Strehla Zentrum, all streets were closed to car traffic, cyclists were exceptionally allowed to pass: carnival parade just in time, which was not allowed to take place …

Very nice tour from Strehla you can still see many houses and LBG buildings like in the days before reunification. There is still a lot to do here, and the palaces and castles which are privately owned still need to be renovated. One still feels transported back to the time before reunification. But no matter where we came into contact …

It was another beautiful cycling day!
Today we got a short and strong rain shower,
then there was sunshine again 👍

Often on beautiful paths through the fields away from the Elbe in the best cycling weather.

Nice cycle path, small back roads and cycle paths. I skipped Mühlberg, but it's a must, lots of history, nice museum, I've already seen that. The castle and the Strehla park are also nice, unfortunately closed, you can only get into the courtyard. Pitch at the big pond, nice, clean and quiet campsite and well located for the Elbe cycle …

The tour was actually supposed to start in Niederau and go via Meißen to Riesa and Torgau. Due to problems with the train connection, we moved the start to Wüblitz.

Today we reached Riesa via the Elbe Cycle Path!
It was a sunny day with no wind, and the scenery is getting more and more beautiful.
The Elbe Cycle Path was also busy today, unlike yesterday.
We visited the beautiful town of Riesa, enjoyed a delicious meal, and now we're preparing for tomorrow, when we'll continue on to Dresden.
