Cycling day trip from Niederrad to Mörfelden-Walldorf

Looking for a pleasant suburban ride? This route starts in Frankfurt’s Niederrad district—famous for its striking blend of modern skyline views and old villas—and rolls south toward Mörfelden-Walldorf, a quieter town known for its natural reserves and small-town charm.

Covering just under 28 km, the path is predominantly paved (over 90%!) and features mostly smooth asphalt, making it perfect for road bikes or a chill cruise on a city bike. You’ll meander through park paths, cross a few quiet side roads, and catch glimpses of the Frankfurt skyline before transitioning into more green, open spaces as you approach Mörfelden-Walldorf.

With only modest changes in elevation (the biggest climbs are more like gentle rollers), there’s little to slow down your momentum. Expect the route to be peaceful—most of it runs on designated paths or quiet roads, so you can enjoy the scenery without worrying about heavy traffic. It's a straightforward, accessible route with plenty of opportunity for a coffee stop at either end. Whether you’re commuting or just exploring, it’s a scenic and stress-free ride!
