Quick ride by bicycle from Opladen to Langenfeld

This relaxed 13 km ride takes you from Opladen to Langenfeld, winding mostly along quiet roads and smooth cycleways. You’ll start in Opladen, a district of Leverkusen known for its historic railway station—perfect if you fancy a pre-ride coffee and some trainspotting.

Heading north, you’ll enjoy mostly paved and asphalt surfaces, so expect a comfy roll with very gentle hills (just a bit of up and down, nothing to sweat about!). Almost 40% of your ride is along dedicated bike paths, and you’ll rarely be bothered by busy traffic—ideal for zoning out or chatting with a friend.

Langenfeld, your destination, sits right between Cologne and Düsseldorf. It’s a popular spot for commuters thanks to great transport links, but also has lovely parks if you want to cool down after your ride. All in all, it’s the perfect, easy cruise for a weekday evening or relaxed weekend adventure.
