Quick ride by bicycle from St. Pauli to Eimsbüttel

Cruising from St. Pauli to Eimsbüttel on your bike is a great way to see two of Hamburg’s coolest neighborhoods in under five kilometers. Starting out in St. Pauli, right by the legendary Reeperbahn and some of the city’s best nightlife, you’ll pedal through lively streets with plenty to watch. Most of the ride is on paved surfaces—expect a mix of smooth asphalt and some urban paving stones (classic Hamburg!).

The route keeps things pretty mellow with almost no hills, just a gentle rise and fall, perfect for an easy ride. You’ll mostly follow quiet roads and dedicated paths, with a couple of bits through local pedestrian zones and just a short, 3% stint on busier roads—nothing too hectic.

As you roll into Eimsbüttel, you’ll pass tree-lined avenues and local cafés, ending in one of Hamburg’s most charming residential districts. It’s a perfect little urban adventure, great for commuters, café-hoppers, or anyone wanting to explore the city on two wheels.
