Cycling day trip from Flensburg to Guderup

This cycling route starts in the lovely border town of Flensburg, right where Germany meets Denmark. Known for its maritime flair and colorful harbor, Flensburg is a compact city full of history, half-timbered houses, and great coffee stops—perfect fuel for your ride!

From there, you’ll pedal north on a mostly paved adventure (around 89% paved, so smooth rolling nearly the whole way), cruising along dedicated cycleways and peaceful country roads. With a gentle total ascent of about 411 meters, the ride won’t break the legs, but there’s enough up-and-down to keep things interesting as you pass through lush fields and small villages in the rolling Schleswig countryside.

The final push arrives in Guderup, a cozy Danish village on the island of Als. Here, you’ll get a classic taste of rural Denmark—think thatched roofs, friendly faces, and maybe a bakery snack to celebrate your 72 km accomplishment!

All in all, this route blends seaside charm, stunning farmland, and cross-border adventure—perfect for cyclists after a scenic ride with a touch of culture.
