An entertaining bike route following the footsteps of the BRÜCKE artists in Moritzburg

You start your bike tour at the north side of the castle car park and follow the BRÜCKE hiking trail signs to Borngartenweg. Then continue your bike tour via Roßmarkt, Bergstraße, and Kötzschenbrodaer Straße to Dippelsdorf. Follow the signs to the BRÜCKE artist's residence RED HOUSE. Nearby is the stop "Friedewald Bad" of the historic narrow-gauge railway. Here you can continue by the Lößnitzgrundbahn or choose to return by bike to Moritzburg.

After crossing the tracks, the route leads you left into "Am Jämmchen" back towards Moritzburg. Use the BRÜCKE hiking trail signs for about 1.5 km to Dresdner Straße. Turn right there. After 200 m, change to the left side of the street onto the bike path and turn left after 100 m. Follow the gravel path for 1 km to Volkersdorfer Straße and turn left there. At the next crossroads, turn left again onto Alte Dresdner Straße. After 2 km you reach Moritzburg.
