Bike Tour

To give our participants a warm welcome in Dresden, we offer two different bike tours through the city. Both tours start on Wednesday, November 9 at 8:30 am in the centre of Dresden and end at 10:15 am at the conference venue, so that there is still enough time before the conference starts.

The tours are planned along the famous sights in the inner city, but also along interesting bicycle or general infrastructure. One tour will be led by Paula Scharfe and Marie Sanders, employees of the municipality of Dresden. Birgit Lies, staff member of the Saxony bicycle and pedestrian association „wegebund“, will lead the other.

Registration is required to participate in the bike tour, as bikes will be provided at the beginning of the tour. These bikes can then be used until the end of the conference. There will be a participation fee of 10 €. The number of participants per tour is limited to 25.

We look forward to a pleasant ride but since we cannot guarantee sunny weather in Dresden in November, it is worth bringing a rain jacket.
