No sports! Not in Riesa, because there’s something for everybody here.
If you want to play 10 Pin Bowling, football, go for a swim or work out
in a gym - even if you are looking for something totally out of the
ordinary - Riesa’s health clubs and gyms have it all. Take a look
around and choose the sport you like best.
Here’s something special for you – a bicycle tour along the Elbe river.
The Elbe river bicycle path is among the most captivating and panoramic
bicycle tours anywhere in Europe. You have 860 kilometres of
breathtaking countryside from the German Wadden Sea to the Sandstone
Mountains on the Elbe river. Then you can also take a break when you
get to Riesa where you will be amazed by the Elbquelle, the largest
iron sculpture in Europe, the convent chapel, the Pasta Centre, the
Animal Zoo and a whole lot more.
Nordic Walking has become a popular sport for the young and the old.
Riesa offers three walking paths in Riesa’s Municipal Park and the
meadows of the Elbe river, and the only thing you need is a pair of
good walking shoes. Walking is a gentle, but an effective way to train
your body and get your blood circulation moving.
