Quick ride by bicycle from Darmstadt to Griesheim

Set off on a charming cycle from the vibrant city of Darmstadt, known for its rich industrial heritage and stunning Jugendstil architecture, and head towards the tranquil town of Griesheim. This leisurely route covers just over 6 kilometers, making it perfect for a short afternoon ride.

You’ll predominantly cruise over smooth asphalt, with the path making up the majority of the journey, ensuring a comfortable ride. The nice mix of quiet roads and pedestrian areas adds to the relaxed vibe, allowing you to soak up the surroundings without any rush.

On your way, you'll experience a gentle descent of about 43 meters – nothing too challenging, but enough to give a nice, easy coast. The maximum elevation you'll hit is 148 meters, so it's nothing a steady pedaler can't handle.
