Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Bornheim à Hürth

This scenic 20-kilometer cycling route takes you from the mellow orchards of Bornheim, through the rural charm between Bonn and Cologne, and finishes up in Hürth—a lively town known for its film studios and leafy lakes.

Starting in Bornheim, you’ll cruise through mostly paved and quiet paths (so you can unwind and enjoy the ride without much traffic). About 90% of your route is on smooth asphalt or pavement, winding northwards past fields and small villages. The ascent is gentle (just under 90 meters), so it’s friendly on the legs; you’ll top out around 122 meters above sea level before a mild descent into Hürth.

Hürth is a great place to wrap up your ride, with options to refuel at a café or even stroll by Otto-Maigler-See, a popular local lake. Perfect for a half-day outing or a chilled weekend ride!
