Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Bamberg à Schweinfurt

Set off from the charming city of Bamberg, famous for its UNESCO-listed old town and legendary smoked beer, and ride north towards Schweinfurt. This 64 km route is a relaxed journey mostly on paved surfaces and quiet country paths, winding gently through the rolling Franconian countryside.

You’ll enjoy stretches along tree-lined bike paths and only a few short sections of gravel and concrete. The slight ascent and descent make it accessible for most cyclists—perfect for a laid-back day out. Along the way, expect scenic river views, small villages, and classic Bavarian landscape.

Your ride wraps up in Schweinfurt, a city known for its industrial history (think ball bearings) and lively river promenade. Reward yourself with a coffee at one of the cafes along the Main, or take a stroll through the old town before heading back. It’s a lovely route combining history, scenery, and relaxed cycling.
