Scenic road between Schönfeld and Eschdorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

I prefer this route to the parallel railway embankment cycle path, at least towards Saxon Switzerland, which is downhill. The road is wider, offers better visibility, and doesn't have those …

Section of the old railway embankment. The old railway embankment is a well-developed and well-traveled way away from traffic. Somewhat annoying are the numerous cobbled driveways around Eschdorf.

Old railway embankment as a pure bike path. Ideal for the road bike because smooth asphalt

Old Railway Embankment Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

For completeness, a piece of railway embankment from the old railway bridge to Dürröhrsdorf. Slightly longer "trackable" and moderate ascent through the forest.

Continuation of the Railway Embankment Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Unofficial continuation of the railway embankment to Helmsdorf. Could certainly go through as an old railway embankment, but was probably none. In Helmsdorf you have to continue on the road. However, with very little traffic.

Wilschdorf–Fischbach Country Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful & quiet route. However, if a car does come, it can get tight here due to the KFZ-Überholzwang.

Very nice paved dirt road. Topping with good quality. The path is absolutely quiet and you have great views over the fields.

View of Dresden from Bischofsweg

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Quiet road connecting the towns of Ullersdorf and Kleinerkmannsdorf. The road winds its way up a hill to the foot of the Todberg. On the way, a refuge invites you to take a break and a view. Asphalt is great!

Nevertheless, almost 40 people are standing in front of the Kawa espresso bar in Dresden's Hechtviertel on Saturday morning. The loop heads east. The cold is not …
