Paseo rápido en bici de Leimen a Heidelberg

This ride takes you from Leimen to Heidelberg, a lovely stretch about 9 kilometers (around 5.5 miles) through the scenic and historic region just south of Heidelberg. Starting in Leimen—a town known as the birthplace of tennis legend Boris Becker—you’ll enjoy mostly quiet roads and some pleasant paths, making this a relaxing spin suitable for most cyclists.

Most of the route is paved or asphalt, so you won’t have to worry about rough surfaces, with just a small portion made up of paving stones. The elevation is gentle—only about 25 meters of climbing—which keeps things friendly if you’re not in the mood for a workout.

As you approach Heidelberg, you’ll roll into one of Germany’s most beautiful and iconic university towns, famous for its charming Altstadt (Old Town), the castle perched above the river, and vibrant student life. Grab a coffee on arrival and enjoy a stroll along the Neckar!
