Directions
The bike route starts directly at the Karl May Museum in Radebeul, which is easily accessible from the Elbe Cycle Route. We cross the main street and ride straight to the wine hiking trail, reaching the first wineries in Oberlößnitz. The wineries "Drei Herren," "Ulf Große," "Karl Friedrich Aust," and "Hoflößnitz" lie directly on the route.
We take a small detour to the "Golden Chariot" – here the famous Spitzhau stairs lead through the vineyards. Those who take the path up on foot are rewarded with a magnificent view. Above the rooftops of Radebeul, we also admire the Bismarck Tower, designed by Wilhelm Kreis and inaugurated in 1907 by the Kötzschenbroda master builder Alfred Große.
The bike route then continues always above the city along the slopes. A visit to the famous "State Winery Schloss Wackerbarth" is a must.
Continuing, we pass through the next town Coswig by the "Matyas" winery before heading further via Weinböhla and Niederau. Now it's time to cover some distance through the north Elbe towns before heading back towards the Elbe and finally arriving at the beautiful castle in Diesbar-Seußlitz. From here, we cycle on the Elbe Cycle Route, passing through towns with wineries like "Jan Ulrich," "Weingut Lehmann," and many more.
In Meißen, we admire the castle hill and continue along the Elbe Cycle Route. In Sörnewitz, just after the distinctive Boselspitze, there are more wineries such as the "Weingut Schuh," now run by the younger generation of the winemaking family. It's worth stopping here as well. Afterwards, the route rolls on along the Elbe Cycle Route towards Radebeul and thus back to the start of the wine route by bike.
