Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Ratingen do Hochfeld

Ready for a great day on two wheels? This 22 km ride takes you from the charming town of Ratingen, known for its historic timber-framed houses and lively old town, up to Duisburg-Hochfeld—a vibrant, diverse neighborhood sitting right by the Rhine.

The route is super chill in terms of hills (barely over 60m at its highest), so it’s friendly for all levels. About 80% of your ride is on nice, paved surfaces, with smooth asphalt making up more than half—that means you can roll along at a comfy pace! You’ll spend most of your time on quiet roads and scenic paths with only short stints on official cycleways. There’s a dash of cobble and paving stones for that classic German vibe, but nothing to worry about.

As you glide out of Ratingen, you’ll pass leafy edges of Duisburg’s city forest before arriving in Hochfeld, a former industrial hub that pulses with multicultural energy and is part of Duisburg’s exciting modern transformation. It’s a gentle, enjoyable ride connecting the old with the new—perfect for a weekend spin or a relaxed commute!
