Excursión ciclista de un día de Forchheim a Bamberg

This ride takes you from the charming town of Forchheim up to the historic city of Bamberg, both nestled in beautiful Upper Franconia. The route is just under 28 km, with mostly flat terrain—so it’s a relaxing pedal, perfect for a half-day adventure. You'll mostly glide along quiet paved paths and country roads, with just the slightest touch of gravel, making it easy for nearly any bike.

Setting off in Forchheim, you’ll notice the picturesque half-timbered houses—this town is famous for its lively beer gardens, so be sure to note your favorites for another visit. The route heads north through scenic countryside, passing green fields and small villages, letting you soak in the peaceful Franconian landscape.

As you approach Bamberg, you’ll feel the history in the air. Bamberg itself is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, known for its medieval old town, stunning cathedral, and smoky local beer (try a “Rauchbier” if you have time). This ride is a fantastic way to link two authentic Bavarian gems—enjoy the culture, scenery, and maybe a cold brew at the end!
