Introduction to the Weser Cycle Route from Hann. Munden to Cuxhaven
The Weser River was formed by the confluence of the Werra and Fulda rivers. The Weser Cycle Route is a popular long-distance cycling path in Germany, stretching from the Teutoburg Forest to the North Sea at Cuxhaven. This charming route features diverse landscapes, offering a peaceful and relaxing experience, making it one of the most beautiful river cycling paths.
With no major climbs, cyclists follow the river downstream from the Weserbergland to the North Sea, passing picturesque half-timbered villages, stunning Weser Renaissance architecture, and majestic castles, while also enjoying breathtaking natural surroundings. A perfect route for cycling enthusiasts seeking culture, history, and nature.

The Weser Fairy Tale Route connects the most beautiful places to the famous fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, such as the Pied Piper of Hamelin. The diverse landscape of the Weser leads cyclists through picturesque valleys, wooded hills, charming half-timbered towns, and the Wesermarsch, Europe's largest continuous grassland.
As you cycle, the growing size of ships and shipyards highlights the region's maritime influence. Passing through Minden with its impressive ship lift, you will cycle past Bremerhaven and into Cuxland on the North Sea. Here, you'll explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Wadden Sea, and at the Kugelbake in Cuxhaven, you’ll reach the end of the Weser Cycle Route.
