Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Riehl do Frechen

Set off from Riehl, a lively neighborhood in northern Cologne right by the Rhine, best known for its beautiful parks and the famous Cologne Zoo. Your ride rolls southwest out of the city, weaving through quiet neighborhoods and green spaces as you gradually leave the urban buzz behind.

Covering about 17 km, the route mostly sticks to paved and asphalt paths, but you’ll want to pay a bit of attention on some sections with gravel and paving stones. It’s a nice balance: mostly dedicated paths and quiet roads, so you won’t have to dodge much traffic. The terrain is gently rolling, with a couple of mild climbs to keep things interesting but nothing too intense.

You’ll cruise into Frechen, a cozy town just outside Cologne, known for its pottery history and local charm. Take a break at one of its cafés before heading back or exploring further afield. All in all, it’s a laid-back route that’s perfect for an easygoing day out, with just enough variety to keep the ride fun!
