Start your ride in the buzzing city of Frankfurt am Main, famous for its modern skyline, historic Römer square, and apple wine taverns. This route gently leads you southwest towards Mainz, meandering along about 44 km of mostly paved surfaces—perfect for a relaxed day on two wheels. You'll ride beside the scenic Main River for much of the journey, passing through peaceful tracks and quiet roads, with just a few short sections of gravel and paving stones to keep things interesting.

The ride is mostly flat, with minimal ascent, so it’s beginner-friendly but still rewarding for experienced cyclists seeking a scenic outing. As you arrive in Mainz, soak in the city’s Roman history and vibrant old town, just steps from the majestic Mainz Cathedral. Whether you’re after stunning river views or just want to roll through two of Germany’s most lively Rhineland cities, this ride is a classic. Don’t forget to stop along the way—there are plenty of cozy riverside spots for a quick rest or a snack!
