À vélo de Neustadt/Süd à Hürth

This cycling route starts in Neustadt/Süd, one of Cologne’s most vibrant neighborhoods, known for its trendy bars, great food spots, and proximity to the greenbelt parks. Your ride kicks off in the heart of the city and takes you southwest toward Hürth—a quieter, suburban town just outside Cologne.

The journey is just under 14 km, mostly on paved surfaces, so it’s a relaxed spin even for casual cyclists. You’ll enjoy a nice mix of urban cycling and green stretches, with most of the route being on dedicated paths or quiet roads. The ascent is gentle (just over 70 meters total), so it shouldn’t be too tough, and you’ll lose a bit more elevation than you gain—meaning the ride gets easier as you head toward Hürth.

Once you arrive, Hürth welcomes you with its cozy atmosphere and several lovely spots to grab a coffee or snack. Fun fact: Hürth is known for its proximity to the Stadtwald forest and is home to the German Broadcasting Museum if you’re up for a little exploring after your ride!
