Sortie rapide à vélo de Nackenheim à Mayence

Set off from the charming riverside town of Nackenheim, well-known for its wine tradition—if you’re up for a glass later, keep that in mind for your return! This scenic 14 km ride to Mainz is pancake-flat, with just a gentle 64 meters of ascent and lots of smooth, paved surfaces to make for a relaxed pedal.

The route meanders alongside vineyards and cuts through quiet tracks and scenic paths, with the Rhine always close by. Expect mostly asphalt, but there are stretches of concrete and some classic German paving stones as you cruise closer to Mainz’s city vibe.

On arrival, you’ll find yourself in the bustling heart of Mainz—a city rich in Roman history and the birthplace of the Gutenberg printing press. Grab a coffee in the Altstadt or explore the majestic Mainz Cathedral before heading back or calling it a day.

This route is ideal whether you’re seeking a laid-back afternoon ride, a gentle scenic workout, or a commute between two beautiful Rheinland gems.
