Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Mayence à Bingen-Am-Rhein

This route takes you from the lively city of Mainz to the scenic wine town of Bingen am Rhein, following about 34 km along the beautiful Rhine River. You’ll start in Mainz, famous for its lively old town and the impressive Mainz Cathedral—don’t forget to grab a coffee before you roll out.

The ride is mostly flat with a few gentle climbs—nothing too taxing—so it’s great for a chill day on the saddle. You’ll be riding on smooth asphalt for most of the way and with over 90% paved surfaces, you won’t have to worry about rough gravel. The path mostly sticks to quiet roads, designated bike tracks, and riverside paths, all perfect for taking in the sweeping vineyard views and pretty villages.

As you arrive in Bingen, you’ll be greeted by stunning views of the Rhine Gorge—this area is actually a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take your time to wander around, maybe grab a local Riesling, and soak in the town’s relaxed, riverside vibe. This ride is all about enjoying the scenery, not racing to the finish.
