Quick ride by bicycle from Rottenburg to Tübingen

This scenic ride takes you from Rottenburg am Neckar to the vibrant university town of Tübingen—two charming towns in Baden-Württemberg. Starting in Rottenburg, known for its medieval old town and striking cathedral, you’ll follow a mostly paved route (with just a hint of gravel), so your tires will thank you!

It’s a relaxed 14 km spin, mostly on quiet roads and countryside tracks. Expect gentle ascents and descents through farmland, meadows, and the occasional woodland stretch. As you approach Tübingen, you’ll likely notice more cycle paths and lively student buzz.

Tübingen itself is famous for its historic Altstadt, colorful half-timbered houses, and punts gliding along the Neckar river. Take some time to wander its cobbled streets or grab a coffee by the Neckar once you arrive. This route is perfect for a mellow day out, with plenty of scenery and small-town charm at both ends!
