Sortie rapide à vélo de Francfort-sur-le-Main à Maintal

Here’s a great little cycling trip from the heart of Frankfurt am Main to the neighboring town of Maintal, just over 15 km away. Kicking off in Frankfurt, you’ll start among the skyscrapers and lively cafés before heading east toward quieter suburbs and eventually, the scenic Main riverbanks.

You can expect the ride to be super chill: mostly paved paths and smooth asphalt, with gentle ups and downs—no major hills to worry about. Around half the journey follows dedicated paths and quiet roads, so it’s perfect for unwinding and soaking in the riverside views or the leafy stretches just outside the city.

Maintal, your destination, is known for its relaxed vibe and sits right by the Main river, making it a great spot for a riverside picnic or pastry break. All in all, this route is friendly to both city bikes and casual riders, with plenty of good pavement and a mostly traffic-free ride. Don’t forget to bring your camera for river views—and maybe an appetite for some German cake at the end!
