Excursión ciclista de un día de Meerbusch a Ratingen

This pleasant 21-kilometer ride takes you from the leafy suburb of Meerbusch to the charming town of Ratingen. You’ll be rolling mostly on paved surfaces (with a good mix of asphalt and paving stones), making for smooth cycling almost all the way. The route sticks to paths and quiet roads, so it’s a great choice if you prefer fewer cars and more greenery.

Meerbusch is known for its peaceful residential areas and lots of green space, making it a lovely spot to set out from. As you head east, you’ll cross through rural stretches and scenic landscapes typical for this part of North Rhine-Westphalia. There’s a gentle ascent early on, but nothing too demanding, and you’ll hardly notice the height changes.

Your ride ends in Ratingen, a historic town with a picturesque old center and plenty of cozy places to grab a coffee. If you have the time, Ratingen’s medieval church and half-timbered houses are worth a look before you head back. Enjoy your ride!
