Paseo rápido en bici de Leinfelden-Echterdingen a Esslingen

This scenic cycling route starts in Leinfelden-Echterdingen, a charming suburb just south of Stuttgart, and takes you all the way to Esslingen am Neckar, famous for its beautiful half-timbered houses and medieval old town. Over almost 19 km, you’ll get a gentle workout, with a total ascent of just over 100 meters, but you lose nearly three times as much altitude, so it’s mostly an easy roll!

The route leads you along mostly paved surfaces—perfect for road bikes—with most of your ride following quiet roads and tracks that offer a peaceful escape from traffic. You’ll travel through a mix of green spaces and local neighborhoods, catching glimpses of the Filder plateau before gradually descending towards the Neckar River.

Esslingen is a stunner at the finish line, known for its vibrant town center, ancient bridges, and riverside cafés. Whether you stop for a coffee or a stroll, the city’s historic vibe is worth the ride. Great for intermediate cyclists looking for an easygoing adventure with rewarding sights at both ends!
