Quick ride by bicycle from Mariendorf to Friedenau

Spin from Mariendorf up to leafy Friedenau on a mostly flat, easy 8.4 km ride. Roll out near Alt-Mariendorf (U6 terminus) and, if you like, dip onto the Teltowkanalradweg for a calm, green stretch before threading quiet backstreets through Tempelhof-Schöneberg.

The route is solidly bike-friendly: mostly paved (about 86%), with plenty of asphalt and a few paving-stone sections in residential areas. Expect a good mix of dedicated cycleways and quiet roads, minimal traffic, and barely any elevation change.

Quick detours: check out Volkspark Mariendorf or the historic Trabrennbahn (harness racing track) before you head north. In Friedenau, you’re rewarded with Gründerzeit facades, tree-lined streets, and cozy cafés—aim for the area around Rheinstrasse or Friedrich-Wilhelm-Platz (U9) for a post-ride treat.

In short: a smooth, city-crossing spin with greenery, neighborhood charm, and just enough variety to keep it fun without breaking a sweat.
