By bicycle from Ulm to Erbach

This relaxed cycling route takes you from the historic city of Ulm to quaint Erbach, covering about 15 km on mostly smooth, paved paths. Starting in Ulm, you'll be near the impressive Ulm Minster, home to the tallest church spire in the world and a great spot for a quick photo op before you set off. The ride rolls gently south, with just a bit of climbing—enough to get your legs working, but nothing too dramatic.

You'll cruise mostly on quiet paths and tracks surrounded by green countryside and occasional villages. The route avoids busy roads almost entirely, keeping it peaceful and safe, with only a brief stretch through a pedestrian area and along access roads. As you roll into Erbach, you can take in its charming old town and see Schloss Erbach, a lovely moated castle. All paved and well-kept, this is an all-weather ride, perfect for any type of bike and all skill levels. Don’t forget to grab an ice cream in Erbach before heading back or exploring further into the Swabian countryside!
