A bike tour is a nice way to discover the places and sights along the Unstrut Cycle Path. From the source of the Unstrut west of Kefferhausen in Eichsfeld, Thuringia, to the mouth of the Saale in Blütengrund near Naumburg, the Unstrut measures about 192 kilometers. The Unstrut Cycle Path is particularly popular with families, family enthusiasts and touring cyclists.

Overall, the bike path is connected to numerous well-known long-distance bike paths. The Unstrut source is connected with the Kanonenbahnradweg to the Werra-Radweg and thus to the Weser-Radweg and Thuringian Forest. Another combination is the Leineradweg from Heiligenstadt. In Naumburg Blütengrund you can combine the Unstrut and Saaleradweg to the Saale-Unstrut-Radweg by setting out on round trips through the wine region.
