Paseo rápido en bici de Oberursel a Fráncfort del Meno

This relaxed cycling route takes you from Oberursel, tucked at the foot of the Taunus mountains, right into the heart of Frankfurt am Main. It’s just under 18 km—perfect for a morning ride or a leisurely afternoon spin.

You’ll start your journey in Oberursel, a town known for its charming old center and as one of the gateways to beautiful Taunus hikes. The road gently descends almost all the way, dropping about 100 meters in elevation and making this an especially easy and enjoyable ride.

Most of your route is on smooth paved roads and quiet paths (over 90% paved, with very little gravel), so it’s bike-friendly for any level. Expect a mix of peaceful backroads with leafy surroundings and easy-going town paths, plus a brief stretch on cycleways.

As you roll into Frankfurt, you’ll catch the city skyline—famous as Germany’s banking capital and home to a vibrant old town and countless museums. Whether you end your ride with a riverside picnic or some city exploring, it’s a great way to connect two distinct vibes in under an hour by bike.
