Cycling in Germany

From its beautiful river banks to the depths of its verdant forests, cycling in Germany offers you so much choice that you’ll soon find yourself planning more and more adventures. Mountains, meadows and medieval towns combine to create a cycling nation that is as rich in culture as it is in landscape. And it truly is a cycling nation: the pursuit is popular for both commuting and leisure, so you can expect to see plenty of others two-wheeling about. 

Fancy exploring cycle routes to Germany’s numerous castles? How about pedalling through the Swabian Alb Geopark in the south with its stunning, hilly landscape and ancient caves? Marvel at the quaint villages in the Tauber Valley, stop off for a harbourside coffee along the Baltic Coast or take a lazy ride through the country’s biggest wine region. With plentiful traffic-free cycle paths, quiet lanes and long-distance routes, Germany is a cycling paradise.
