Cycling day trip from Korntal to Leinfelden-Echterdingen

This cycling route takes you from Korntal, a charming town just northwest of Stuttgart known for its tranquil vibe and historic Moravian roots, all the way to Leinfelden-Echterdingen, famous for being Stuttgart Airport’s neighbor and a hub for both business and leisure.

You’ll cover just under 30 km on this ride, mostly on quiet roads and smooth asphalt, which is perfect for a relaxing but invigorating journey through southern Baden-Württemberg’s picturesque landscapes. Along the way, you’ll get a good workout with more than 400 meters of ascent, passing through rolling suburban hills, leafy parks, and maybe even catching some pretty sweet views over Stuttgart as you skirt the city’s edge.

Most of the route is super cyclist-friendly, with well-paved surfaces and only a few short stretches on paths and tracks. When you roll into Leinfelden-Echterdingen, treat yourself to a quick stroll around – there’s a lively local scene, and you’re just a stone’s throw from the Filder Plain’s open spaces. All in all: a scenic, peaceful ride linking two of Stuttgart’s nicest suburbs!
