Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Mayence à Worms

This scenic cycling route takes you from the historic city of Mainz, known for its Roman heritage and vibrant old town, all the way down to the cathedral city of Worms—one of Germany’s oldest cities. Covering just over 56 km, it’s a mostly gentle ride with mild elevation changes, making it perfect for a full-day adventure or a leisurely trip with friends.

You’ll be rolling almost exclusively on smooth, paved paths and quiet roads (asphalt covers most of the route), ensuring a comfy ride with minimal traffic. The journey follows the western bank of the Rhine for long stretches, giving you river views, vineyard landscapes, and the occasional chance to stop at a riverside café.

Starting in Mainz, take some time to admire the impressive Mainzer Dom before heading out. Your finish in Worms is equally rewarding, landing you at the doorstep of the stunning Wormser Dom and within reach of legendary sites tied to the Nibelungen saga. This route is as much about soaking up history and scenery as it is about enjoying the ride itself!
