Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Düsseldorf à Hochfeld

Looking for a scenic and gently rolling cycling route? Start out from the lively heart of Düsseldorf, a city famous for its arts scene, Altbier, and breezy riverside promenades. You’ll head north toward Hochfeld—a district of Duisburg known for its industrial heritage and multicultural flair.

This approximately 31 km ride is perfect if you want a taste of both urban vibes and green stretches. Most of your journey is on paved paths or quiet roads, so it’s a relaxing trip without much traffic. There’s a nice mix of surfaces, mainly smooth asphalt, but you’ll get a little bit of adventure with sections of paving stones and some gravel. Expect gentle ups and downs—nothing too steep, maxing out at about 45 meters elevation.

Along the way, cruise through peaceful neighborhoods, leafy tracks, and alongside the mighty Rhine. Eventually, you roll into Hochfeld, where you can unwind at Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord or check out the vibrant local cafés. All in all, it’s a fun day ride linking two dynamic cities with plenty to see and enjoy en route!
