Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Bamberg à Nuremberg

Ready for a scenic ride? Kick things off in Bamberg—a UNESCO World Heritage city known for its medieval old town, winding riverways, and famously smoky Rauchbier. As you roll south, most of your route is smooth sailing, with over 95% paved surfaces and just a hint of gravel and unpaved tracks to keep things interesting. Expect mostly gentle paths and quiet roads through classic Franconian scenery—think hop fields, historic villages, and rolling countryside.

You'll gain a little under 300 meters in elevation, so the ride keeps your legs working but never gets too tough. The final stretch leads you into Nuremberg, legendary for its imposing castle, lively old town, and deep ties to both arts and history (not to mention some delicious bratwurst for a post-ride treat). At about 66 kilometers, this route is a perfect day trip: immersive, peaceful, and rich with culture at either end. Don’t forget to pause for fresh pretzels along the way!
