Quick ride by bicycle from Emmerich to Kleve

This ride takes you from Emmerich, a charming riverside town right on the banks of the Rhine, down to Kleve, known for its leafy parks and historical baroque gardens. The route is just over 12 km, making it an easy-going trip, perfect for a casual bike outing.

Most of the way you'll cruise along quiet paths and smooth asphalt surfaces, so it's super comfortable whether you're on a city bike or something more sporty. There are a few sections with paving stones, adding a bit of old-world charm (just watch your speed there!). The landscape is really gentle—practically flat—with hardly any serious climbs.

Emmerich is famous for its beautiful promenade along the Rhine, so you might want to start your ride with a riverside coffee. Once you roll into Kleve, don’t miss the view of the historic Schwanenburg Castle or take a stroll in the town’s lush gardens. All in all, it’s a laid-back route that’s big on scenery and small on sweat!
