À vélo de Neckargemünd à Heidelberg

This is a lovely ride starting in the charming riverside town of Neckargemünd, just east of Heidelberg. Neckargemünd, nestled at the junction of the Neckar and Elsenz rivers, is known for its medieval old town and scenic setting—perfect for kicking off your ride.

The route meanders about 12 km mostly along paved and quiet roads, so you can focus on beautiful Neckar valley views rather than dodging too many cars. There’s a bit of climbing (just over 200 meters of ascent), but that means you’ll get some rolling ups and downs and a taste of the lush Odenwald hills. The surfaces are 94% paved, with a nice mix of smooth asphalt, a few stretches of paving stones, and a tiny bit of gravel and cobbles to keep things interesting.

You’ll finish up in Heidelberg, famed for its stunning castle and lively old town—perfect for a post-ride coffee or ice cream. This route is a great way to connect two of the Neckar’s prettiest towns with plenty of scenery along the way!
