Berlin to Dresden

Distances cycled daily are moderate. The shortest distance, is on the 2nd day and is about 28 km at most. The longest distance is on the 4th day of 58 km, with 22 km in the morning and 36 km in the afternoon. At an easy pace of 10 km per hour, this represents less than 6 hours of cycling this day. Guests will therefore, need to be reasonably fit although being part of the ‘lycra brigade’ is not a prerequisite. The terrain is flat, for virtually the entire trip. The weather in the summer months should be fine and sunny, however there are no guarantees. If it rains, you may get wet. There is not much we can do about the weather. We recommend but do not supply helmets.

Meet at the Sachsenhof Hotel in Berlin. The 1st and 6th nights, based at this 3 star hotel, in central Berlin. 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th nights en route to and in Dresden.
