Explore the Weser

The banks of the Weser invite you to take varied round trips. Whether directly along the dyke, watching the boats or catching a glimpse of the stadium, the Weser is the place to be. We have put together a suitable route for you.
The well-known Weser Cycle Path is also worth a long ride on your bike and takes you from Lower Saxony via Bremen to Bremerhaven.

Pure Nature in the Middle of the City

A new start is always stressful. If you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle, you can do so wonderfully in Blockland. The green oasis in the west is a district of Bremen located in the middle of a nature reserve, where more cows live than people and where you will find the best conditions for extended cycling tours - especially because only residents are allowed to drive here. You can find a suggested route with the Blockland-Round.

In the Far North

If you follow the Weser downstream from the centre of Bremen, you will come to the north of the city. Although the district north of the Lesum is part of Bremen, the local population often has a feeling of independence. Whether you call the north of Bremen your new home or you just want to explore another corner of Bremen: Vegesack, Blumenthal and Burglesum are well worth a visit. The Bremer-Norden-Runde akes you to the most important stops in these districts. By the way, a ferry including your bike will take you from the Martini jetty in Bremen to Vegesack.

In the Green through Bremen's West

The Grünzug West invites you to explore the districts of Walle and Gröpelingen by bike. The 4.5-kilometre-long former railway line takes you through the neighbourhoods in Bremen's west. Connected to the cycling and walking paths of the areas, you can also reach Blockland or the Waller Feldmark from the Grünzug, where you can extend your cycling tours further.
