Cycling day trip from Regensburg to Kelheim

Start your cycling adventure in the beautiful city of Regensburg, known for its well-preserved medieval core and stunning Romanesque architecture. As you pedal away, you'll be heading towards Kelheim, a charming town nestled at the confluence of the Altmühl and Danube Rivers.

This is a lovely ride, covering a distance of about 34 km, and gently winding through scenic terrain. The route is a nice mix, with over half on asphalt, providing a smooth ride, while gravel paths add a bit of texture to your journey. You'll encounter some elevation changes, with a max height just under 460 meters – nothing too steep, but certainly enough to give your legs a decent workout.

Along the way, you'll enjoy the tranquility of quiet roads and paths that make up the majority of this trip. Plus, keep an eye out for beautiful natural landscapes and maybe even stop for a quick photo op or a picnic by the water. Once you roll into Kelheim, you're in for a treat—make sure to visit the famous Liberation Hall from where you’ll get fantastic views of the Danube River. Happy cycling!
