Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Düsseldorf do Meiderich

Cycling from Düsseldorf to Meiderich

Get ready for a relaxed ride from the heart of Düsseldorf up to Meiderich, a lively district in the north of Duisburg. You’ll cover just under 40 km—perfect for a long morning or an afternoon spin.

The route is largely flat, sticking close to the Rhine and winding through the scenic Ruhr region. With a mix of smooth asphalt and some charming stretches of paving stones and gravel, you’ll get plenty of variety without anything too challenging. Most of your journey (over half!) takes you along shared paths and cycleways, keeping you away from heavy traffic and making it a chilled ride.

Düsseldorf, your starting point, is known for its artsy vibe and riverfront promenades. At the end, Meiderich greets you with its industrial heritage and greenery—plus, you’re close to Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord, a former ironworks turned into a cool park full of gardens and old machinery you can explore.

Bring a snack, enjoy the changing scenery, and don’t forget your camera—this is a scenic slice of the Rhineland!
