Gita in bici di un giorno da Gelnhausen a Hanau am Main

This ride takes you from the charming medieval town of Gelnhausen to the vibrant city of Hanau, stretching just under 30 km. The route is mostly flat with a gentle descent—great if you want a cruisy day out without major climbs. You’ll roll out on a mix of smooth asphalt and well-maintained paths (over 95% paved), mostly sticking to quiet roads and cycle paths, making for a relaxed journey.

Gelnhausen itself is famed for its well-preserved old town—definitely worth a quick stroll before you set off. The route winds through the beautiful Kinzig valley, so expect some scenic river views and plenty of green space along the way. There’s a good mix of nature and small towns to keep things interesting, and, since Hanau is known as the birthplace of the Brothers Grimm, consider grabbing a fairy tale-themed treat when you arrive!

With easy navigation, little traffic, and only minor altitude changes, it’s a fantastic option for a chill weekend ride.
