Quick ride by bicycle from Tempelhof to Berlin Schöneberg

Ready for a mellow Berlin city ride? Start your journey in Tempelhof, the neighborhood famed for its repurposed airfield—Tempelhofer Feld, Berlin’s enormous public park where locals picnic, skate, and fly kites. From here, you’ll cruise northwest for about 5.5 km toward the vibrant Schöneberg district.

The route is mostly flat, with just enough gentle up and down to keep things interesting. You’ll spend most of your time on quiet roads and smooth cycleways, weaving through classic Berlin streets lined with Gründerzeit buildings. Pedestrian areas make up about a fifth of your ride, so expect to slow down near lively plazas.

The ride finishes in Schöneberg, once home to David Bowie and legendary for its nightlife, food, and LGBTQ+ history. You’ll mostly ride on asphalt and paving stones, with hardly any busy traffic—a city cruise perfect for a relaxing afternoon!
