Sortie rapide à vélo de Erkrath à Düsseldorf

This leisurely ride takes you from the quieter town of Erkrath right into the vibrant heart of Düsseldorf—perfect for anyone looking to mix a bit of rural calm with urban energy. The route is just under 15 km and mostly sticks to smooth, paved paths, making it beginner-friendly and ideal for city bikes.

You’ll start in Erkrath, known for its lush green spaces and close proximity to the beautiful Neandertal valley, where the Neanderthal fossil was discovered. As you pedal westward, most of your journey will be on quiet roads and dedicated paths, so there’s very little traffic to worry about. A gentle ascent and descent along the way gives a bit of variety, but nothing too taxing.

After about an hour (give or take, depending on your pace), you’ll roll into Düsseldorf. The city is famous for its riverside promenade, bustling Altstadt (old town), and, of course, its legendary Altbier. If you time it right, you might even catch some street performances or markets in the city center!
