Excursión ciclista de un día de Estrasburgo a Basilea

Ready for an international cycling adventure? This route takes you from Strasbourg, the charming French city famed for its mix of German and French culture (and as the seat of the European Parliament), all the way south to Basel, Switzerland’s vibrant cultural capital on the Rhine.

You’ll cover just under 140 kilometers, mostly on smooth, paved surfaces and dedicated cycleways, making for a relaxed ride with only mild elevation gain. The route rolls through the scenic Alsace region and dips into the Rhine Valley, so expect picturesque villages, vineyards, and plenty of riverside views.

Along the way, you’ll enjoy a great mix of quiet country roads and purpose-built bike paths. The approach to Basel involves only minimal climbs, which means you can focus on soaking up the scenery rather than grinding up any steep hills.

Finishing in Basel, you’ll arrive in a cosmopolitan city packed with museums, quirky architecture, and a lively old town—perfect for a post-ride coffee or a stroll along the Rhine. Don’t forget your passport: you’ll be crossing the French-Swiss border!
