This ride from Basel to Freiburg im Breisgau is a real gem, perfect for a full day of cycling adventure! Starting in Basel, you’ll roll out from a bustling Swiss city known for its beautiful Rhine river views, art museums, and vibrant culture. The route is mostly on smooth, paved surfaces (over 90%!) with tons of paths and quiet roads—so you won’t be dodging traffic all day.

You’ll meander north through picturesque countryside and charming villages, catching glimpses of vineyards, lush fields, and maybe even the Black Forest hills in the distance. With gentle ascents (just under 480 meters total), it’s a satisfying challenge but nothing too hardcore. Keep an eye out for cozy cafés and bakeries along the way for a pit stop!

Finishing in Freiburg, you’ll be greeted by a lively, eco-friendly university town famous for its medieval old town and the stunning Freiburg Minster cathedral. This city is a cyclist’s paradise, so you’re in good company! All in all, it’s a ride packed with scenery, culture, and great cycling infrastructure.
