August 20, 2025,Von Meißen nach Diesbar

It had been planned for a while, and today it worked out. A relaxing bike ride through the Elbe landscape from Meißen to Diesbar-Seußlitz.
Return the same way, as the Niederlommatzsch ferry is currently out of service.
Still a beautiful route, highly recommended. 🙂👍

Today's bike tour took us to the Meissen Cathedral and the Albrechtsburg, then through the beautiful little old town of Meissen, then to the Heilig Kreuz monastery ruins with a very well-kept garden, then via the Elbe cycle path to Niederlommatzsch, with the ferry to the other side of the Elbe and back to the parking space. A beautiful tour...

May 25, 2022,Meissen loop on the Elbe. Relaxing day

Day started late due to rain. In the meantime, a small café with chocolat-chilli ice cream in the center of Meissen. Finally the good weather arrived, ready for a new start.

September 29, 2024,Schnelle Runde nach Meißen

After the wine festival last night, some exercise was due...
The Elbe cycle path is clean again and easy to ride. However, the passage on the right bank of the Elbe under the old town bridge in Meißen is still flooded.
