Paseo rápido en bici de Bergisch Gladbach a Deutz

This scenic ride takes you from the leafy town of Bergisch Gladbach—known for its charming old town and Papiermuseum—straight into the vibrant heart of Deutz, a buzzing riverside district just across the Rhine from Cologne’s cathedral.

You’ll cover about 17 kilometers, mostly on quiet roads and smooth paths, so it’s a relaxed trip great for any level of cyclist. The route takes you gently downhill for most of the way, so you’ll get to cruise with minimal effort. Expect a bit of variety under your tires, with stretches of asphalt, gravel, and even some classic German paving stones.

As you approach Deutz, soak in views of Cologne’s skyline and the iconic Hohenzollern Bridge. There are plenty of spots for a coffee break, and if you fancy a little detour, the Rheinpark is perfect for chilling out before you hit the city bustle. Ideal for a city escape or a leisurely trip into town!
