Point to point
Popular cycle route from Leipzig, Saxony.
The route begins in Leipzig's Rosenthal, where the Parthe flows into the White Elster. It goes past the zoo through the center of Leipzig to Mariannenpark. The route becomes quieter and more natural. The cycle path goes out of the city. The landscape becomes somewhat hilly between Sehlis and Panitzsch. In summer, it is worth detouring the bathing lakes in Naunhof before the cycle path ends in Grimma, a town of cultural and historical interest. From there, it is possible to extend the route with the Mulderadweg.
The cycle path is generally very well signposted. From time to time, the route goes along quiet side roads. From Taucha, Borsdorf, Naunhof, or Grimma, the train can be taken back in comfort.
Highlights:
- Varied landscape
- Naunhof bathing lakes
