In bici da Bonn a Alfter

Get ready for a pleasantly short ride from Bonn to the charming town of Alfter! Starting out in Bonn—a lively city known as Beethoven’s birthplace and once the capital of West Germany—you’ll be pedaling mostly on smooth, paved paths and quiet roads, making this about as stress-free as urban cycling gets. The route is around 7.6 km long and pretty gentle with just a few modest uphills (about 38 meters of climbing), perfect if you’re in the mood for a relaxed outing rather than a workout.

You'll pass through a mix of city buzz and scenic green spaces as you leave Bonn behind, then enter the more tranquil outskirts before rolling into Alfter. Alfter itself is famous for its panoramic views over the Rhine valley and its cozy village feel. The route is almost entirely paved and well maintained, so you can leave the mountain bike at home! This is a perfect ride if you’re looking to escape the city for a bit and discover some of the lovely countryside just outside Bonn’s doorstep.
