The approximately 80 km long Pleiße cycle path runs between the Zwickau region and the city of Leipzig along the river of the same name. The route takes us through the hilly Altenburg region and through the Leipzig Neuseenland.
The Pleiße cycle path is particularly recommended for cross-regional tours. Due to the relatively flat landscape, the route is one of the cycle paths with a low level of difficulty and is therefore also very suitable for families.
