Cycling day trip from Offenburg to Strasbourg

This ride takes you from Offenburg, a lively town in Germany’s Baden wine region, to the picturesque city of Strasbourg across the French border. The route covers just under 30 km, mostly sticking to paved cycleways with some quiet roads and scenic tracks along the way—so you’ll get smooth rolling almost the whole time. There are only gentle ups and downs (under 75 meters total ascent), so it’s accessible to all levels.

Offenburg is known for its charming old town and proximity to the Black Forest, while Strasbourg is famed for its stunning Gothic cathedral and half-timbered houses in the Petite France district. You'll mostly be rolling through peaceful rural landscapes, crossing the scenic Rhine river—it’s a highlight!—before arriving in Strasbourg’s bike-friendly center.

Pack a snack and camera—rolling from German vineyards into French café culture makes for a fun, border-crossing adventure!
