Rhine

Highlight • River

With a mountain bike, the Rhine is a wonderful companion on the tour here. I found it particularly pleasant to be able to ride right along the water again and again and enjoy the calm river landscape. Perfect for taking the pace down a notch, letting your gaze wander, and consciously enjoying the tour.

With a mountain bike, the Rhine river landscape is a really beautiful section to enjoy. I rolled along the water here in a relaxed manner and found the mix of Rhine views, nature, and calm atmosphere particularly pleasant. Perfect for taking the pace down a bit and letting the landscape sink in.

Swans on the Rhine

Highlight • River

A small detour from the city down to the Rhine is always worthwhile, because on the passenger ship you almost always meet up to 20 swans 🦢

The Old Customs House and Customs Road

Highlight • Historical Site

With a mountain bike, a short detour to the Altes Zollhaus and through the Zollstraße is worthwhile. I found the section interesting because, in addition to the ride, you also feel some history and old border/trading atmosphere. A nice little stop to slow down for a moment and let the special surroundings sink in.

Modern Sculpture Fountain in the Pedestrian Zone

Highlight • Monument

By mountain bike, a short detour into the pedestrian zone to see the modern sculpture fountains is worthwhile. I consciously slowed down here and enjoyed the special mix of city, art, and water. A nice little stop to loosen up the tour briefly and soak up the atmosphere.
