Radeberger Rundwanderweg-Wanderrunde

hike · Saxony

Route overview

Loop of 16 km, start and finish: Radeberg. Around 95 m of climbing makes for a solid effort, without extreme elevation swings. At roughly 3 h 40 min on the move (hiking, base pace 4.5 km/h), a solid half-day outing.

The route starts at 248 m above sea level and falls into 2 stretches: km 0–12 rolling (+75 m / −90 m); km 12–16 rolling (+40 m / −20 m). The high point is at km 12, at 356 m above sea level.

The course partly follows waymarked trails (Lausitzer Schlange 1: Dresdner Heide – Rathen, Pillnitz–Städteroute).

The route stays almost entirely clear of built-up areas. The surface is varied, ranging from compacted gravel to asphalt.

For a meal: Heidemühle (restaurant, km 9).

94 m Elevation gain is computed from a terrain model along the route line. Recordings from GPS devices can report higher values — owing to the slightly longer distance actually covered, to measurement inaccuracy, and to device-specific filtering. Differences of 10–15% are entirely possible.
