Quick ride by bicycle from Strasbourg to Kehl

This short and sweet ride takes you from the charming city of Strasbourg in France to its neighbor Kehl, just across the Rhine in Germany. Starting in Strasbourg’s historic center, you’ll pedal through scenic streets and over smooth cycleways (about half the route is dedicated bike path!), traversing the iconic Pont de l’Europe—the bridge connecting the two countries.

The terrain is mostly flat with just a gentle ascent and descent, so it’s easygoing for most cyclists. You’ll roll past a nice mix of city streets and quiet pedestrian areas, crossing over the Rhine with beautiful river views. Most of the way is paved or asphalt, so it’s smooth spinning with some sections of paving stones adding a touch of old-world charm.

Strasbourg is famed for its majestic gothic cathedral and storybook old town, while Kehl offers laid-back German vibes and riverside parks. In less than 8 km, you get a quick hop between two cultures—bring your camera and enjoy an effortless international adventure!
