This stretch of the Elbe Cycle Route (Elberadweg) runs from the Terrassenufer in Dresden's old town downstream along the left bank of the Elbe to Meissen. It's almost entirely flat and mostly away from traffic, past the river meadows with views across to the Radebeul vineyards.
In Meissen, the Albrechtsburg castle and the cathedral stand high above the old town. The S-Bahn back to Dresden takes bikes.
