The cycle tour from Döbeln to Großbothen runs for approximately 34 kilometers along the idyllic Freiberger Mulde River. In Döbeln, St. Nicolai Church and the historic town hall invite you to explore.
After a few kilometers you reach the impressive Buch Monastery, a former Cistercian monastery that offers farmers' markets and exhibitions, as well as numerous art workshops and readings. In the small town of Leisnig, the imposing Mildenstein Castle towers high above the river and offers magnificent views. The Leisnig Cultural Center also represents a summer of music full of concerts and international artists.
Another highlight along the route is the romantic Podelwitz moated castle, which invites you to linger with its gastronomy and events such as music evenings and rum tastings.
