Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Landsberg am Lech à Schongau

Get ready for a gorgeous ride through southern Bavaria! Starting in the charming town of Landsberg am Lech—famous for its colorful Altstadt and medieval city walls—you’ll zip south toward Schongau, covering just under 40 km. The route mostly follows quiet roads and smooth paths (paved all the way for an easy roll), winding through idyllic countryside and rolling hills.

You’ll tackle a bit of climbing (about 330 meters up, but nothing too wild), all against a pretty Alpine backdrop. Watch for sleepy villages and lush green fields—the area is classic Upper Bavaria. The way is peaceful, with hardly any busy roads, so you can really enjoy the scenery.

Your ride ends in Schongau, a lovely town perched above the River Lech, known for its complete medieval wall and beautiful old quarter. Take your time exploring the historic streets before heading home—just don’t forget to try some Bavarian cake at a local café!
