Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Glinde à Hambourg-Eimsbüttel

This ride takes you from Glinde, a small town just east of Hamburg, right into the lively Hamburg district of Eimsbüttel. You'll roll west for about 20.5 km, mostly on quiet roads and paved paths, so it's a chill ride even for those who aren't daily cyclists.

Starting in Glinde, you'll pass through green suburbs and some quiet stretches before merging into the more urban vibe of Hamburg. Most of the route (about 76%) is on decent pavement, with a mix of smooth asphalt and a few sections with paving stones—so be ready for a little character under your tires!

There isn’t a ton of climbing—just gentle ups and downs—which makes the route beginner-friendly. Eimsbüttel itself is one of Hamburg’s coolest neighborhoods, known for its relaxed cafés, leafy parks, and classic Altbau (old building) charm. It’s perfect for grabbing a coffee at the finish and soaking up some city energy.
