Quick ride by bicycle from Munich to Unterföhring

Looking for a fun, relaxed bike ride from Munich to Unterföhring? This roughly 10.7 km route is a great way to experience both the city buzz and the quieter edges of Munich. You'll start in the heart of Munich—famous for its stunning architecture, beer gardens, and museums—and gradually ride northeast towards Unterföhring, a smaller town known for its media hubs and pretty Isar river views.
