Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Heidelberg à Karlsruhe

Set off from Heidelberg, the romantic city on the Neckar River, famous for its charming old town and fairy-tale castle overlooking the red-roofed rooftops. Your ride heads southwest towards Karlsruhe, taking you on a smooth 69 km journey through the gentle countryside of Baden-Württemberg.

Expect an easygoing route—there’s hardly any climbing, and the almost entirely paved surface means you won’t have to worry about rough patches. With more than two-thirds of your ride on peaceful paths, tracks, and quiet roads, you can really enjoy the scenery: fields, cozy villages, and maybe a stop for coffee along the way.

You’ll finish in Karlsruhe, a modern city best known for its fan-shaped city layout and vibrant cultural scene. The pace is relaxed and the route avoids busy roads, making this ride a great choice for a long, laid-back adventure—whether you’re a local or just exploring the area!
