Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Hilden do Erkrath

This relaxed 8.4 km ride takes you from Hilden, a charming town known for its lively old market square, up north to Erkrath, skirting the southern edge of Düsseldorf. Your journey begins mostly on paved and quiet paths, making for a peaceful escape from busy roads.

Expect gentle ups and downs with around 68 meters of climbing—just enough to keep your legs awake without ever feeling tough. Most of your route (over half!) is along dedicated paths, with some pleasant stretches through leafy neighborhoods and little touches of classic paving stones.

As you roll into Erkrath, you’ll catch glimpses of the green surroundings that make the area so attractive for cyclists; Erkrath is a gateway to the Neandertal, legendary for the discovery of early human fossils. Why not stop for coffee at one of the town’s cozy cafes when you arrive? All in all, a perfect short ride mixing nature and local culture.
