Quick ride by bicycle from Tiergarten to Mitte

Ready for a classic Berlin ride? Start in leafy Tiergarten, the city’s central park and a favorite for locals looking to escape the urban rush. The tree-lined paths here make it feel more like a countryside getaway than the heart of the German capital.

From Tiergarten, cruise east on mostly quiet roads (with just a touch of city bustle) toward Mitte, Berlin’s historic center. You’ll mostly enjoy smooth asphalt and paved surfaces, but keep an eye out for some charming cobblestone sections—classic Berlin and a nice reminder you’re riding through history.

Mitte is where Berlin’s story begins, with landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate, Museum Island, and a mix of old and new architecture everywhere you look. The route is mostly flat, with gentle ups and downs—easy going for most cyclists.

In just over 4 kilometers, this mellow ride will take you from the calm of Tiergarten to Berlin’s vibrant heart. Perfect for a relaxed afternoon spin or as part of a day exploring the city’s highlights!
