Gita in bici di un giorno da Bonn a Altstadt Nord

This ride takes you from Bonn—famous as Beethoven’s birthplace and once the capital of West Germany—all the way to the lively Altstadt Nord in Cologne. The route is a little over 32 kilometers, mostly flat, and zips you along the scenic Rhine, so you’ll get plenty of river views and breezy stretches.

It’s a very rideable route: about 98% is paved and 86% smooth asphalt, with only a few patches of paving stones. You’ll pedal mostly on dedicated bike paths and quiet roads, so it’s pretty relaxing and safe, even for less experienced cyclists.

Once you reach Altstadt Nord, tuck your bike away and explore the heart of Cologne. This district is packed with cool shops, the famous Cologne Cathedral, and plenty of spots to grab a coffee or a kölsch. So, saddle up—this route is a perfect day trip if you want to connect two of Germany’s most vibrant Rhine cities by bike!
