Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Eidelstedt à Wedel

This ride takes you from Eidelstedt, a lively district in Hamburg known for its local markets and plenty of green spaces, out west to the charming town of Wedel on the River Elbe. The route is an easy-going 22 km spin with hardly any tough climbs—just enough ascent to keep things interesting, but nothing that’ll leave you gasping.

You’ll cruise mostly on smooth paved paths and quiet roads, weaving through suburban neighborhoods and making your way toward more open landscapes as you head out of the city. With barely any busy roads, it’s a relaxed ride—great for enjoying the changing scenery or a leisurely chat with a cycling buddy.

Wedel is a lovely destination to unwind, famous for its Willkomm-Höft ship-welcoming point, where ships are greeted as they sail into Hamburg. Grab a riverside snack and watch the boats go by before heading back or hopping on an S-Bahn home. All in all, a perfect route if you want a taste of suburban and riverside Hamburg—without the traffic stress.
