Linden Avenue Along the Elbe

Highlight • Cycleway

A stunning avenue of old linden trees on the south bank of the Elbe River. It lines the riverbank for approximately 2.5 kilometers between Riesa City Park and a spot opposite the village of Moritz on the north bank of the Elbe. The asphalt is perfect for cyclists.

Elberadweg Near Riesa

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful cycle path with lots of sights.
It takes time and sometimes instinct.
Thanks to Komoot, it's no longer as difficult as it was xx years ago.

Nice easy tour. We only made the "detour" to the train station because there was no other bakery nearby. Two times ferry - return trip can be booked at the same time - cost 7.5 euros for 2 adults with wheels.

A wonderful round tour without much effort. I no longer knew how beautiful the bike path on the Nünchritzer side is.
