Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Bazylea do Riehen

This mellow ride takes you from the historic heart of Basel up to the leafy suburb of Riehen, just north of the city. Basel, famous for its vibrant old town, Rhine river views, and international art scene, is a gorgeous place to start your day in the saddle. From there, you’ll follow mostly quiet roads and smooth cycleways—no need to worry about heavy traffic on this route!

You’ll wind through calm residential streets and some green stretches, with just a gentle ascent of around 51 meters—barely enough to get the legs burning, but perfect for a leisurely outing. It’s nearly all super-smooth asphalt, making it a breeze for any type of bike.

As you arrive in Riehen, you’re at the doorstep of Switzerland’s renowned Fondation Beyeler art museum and some lovely gardens. Why not finish your ride with coffee or a stroll before heading back? All in all, it’s a relaxed and easygoing route that shows off both Basel’s urban vibe and the tranquil charm of its outskirts.
