Cycling day trip from Freiburg im Breisgau to Bad Krozingen

Set off from the vibrant university city of Freiburg im Breisgau, famous for its medieval old town and eco-friendly vibe, and cruise your way southwest to the spa town of Bad Krozingen. This roughly 20 km ride mostly follows quiet roads and smooth cycle paths, making it a laid-back journey perfect for both seasoned riders and casual cyclists.

The route is super scenic, with gentle rolling landscapes and only a modest ascent (about 65 meters up) before you coast slightly downhill into the Rhine valley. You’ll pedal past charming villages, vineyards, and even catch glimpses of the Black Forest foothills in the distance.

Your destination, Bad Krozingen, is known for its relaxing thermal baths—a perfect reward for finishing your ride! With about 99% paved surfaces (mostly asphalt), you won’t have to worry about rough tracks, so just enjoy the tranquil ride and maybe stop for a slice of Black Forest cake along the way.
