Paved dike path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Recommendable! Not so easy to reach from the direction of Aken (short gravel path) easy to reach from the direction of Dessau. Wide asphalt road without cars. Relatively hilly.

Elbe cycle path in Magdeburg

Highlight • Bridge

through the city along the Elbe - wonderful :-) However, it is also heavily frequented, so it's not really a racetrack!
