Paseo rápido en bici de Friburgo de Brisgovia a Horben

Get ready for a scenic ride from the lively city of Freiburg im Breisgau up to the charming hilltop village of Horben! Starting out in Freiburg—famous for its buzzing old town, eco-friendly vibes, and the lovely Bächle water channels—you’ll head south and quickly find yourself surrounded by the lush foothills of the Black Forest.

The route gently winds upwards, with a solid 321 meters of climbing, but most of the way is on quiet, paved roads and smooth paths, so you can enjoy the views as you go. Expect a mix of shady forest sections, open meadows, and the occasional gravel patch to keep things interesting. The ride is about 12 km, so there’s enough adventure without taking all afternoon.

As you arrive in Horben, perched on the edge of the mountains, you’ll be treated to sweeping vistas of the Rhine Valley and Freiburg below. Horben is a popular spot for hikers and cyclists exploring the Schauinsland, so it’s a great place to take a breather—and maybe even grab a well-earned slice of Black Forest cake!
