Quick ride by bicycle from Bogenhausen to Unterföhring

Ready for a ride from the elegant district of Bogenhausen to the media hub of Unterföhring? This roughly 7.5 km cycling route is perfect if you’re looking for a change of scenery without heading too far from Munich’s city center. You’ll roll out of leafy, residential Bogenhausen—known for its grand villas and the famous Friedensengel (Angel of Peace monument)—and follow mostly quiet paths and stretches of calm road.

Expect a smooth ride, with most of the surface being asphalt or gravel and only gentle ups and downs along the way. Around two-thirds of your route is nicely paved, but keep an eye out for some gravelly patches, so wider tires might come in handy. The landscape gets a bit more open as you approach Unterföhring, which sits on the river Isar and is famous for its clusters of TV, film, and sports broadcasting studios.

This route is great for commuters, weekend explorers, or anyone who wants to see a different side of Munich while enjoying a relaxed ride. Don’t forget to grab a coffee at the start or a riverside snack at the finish!
