Frankfurt am Main is the economic centre of Germany and a melting pot of cultures. You start your bike Tour in the heart of the financial metropolis, surrounded by the impressive city skyline. Nicknamed ‘Mainhattan,’ Frankfurt is home to some of the tallest buildings in Europe. The Main Tower offers breathtaking views over the city and the skyscrapers reflect the modern face of Frankfurt. In the old town, half-timbered houses and the famous Römer, a historic town hall dating to the 15th century, reveal the city's historic charm. Frankfurt combines the best of old and new and offers a unique cultural experience.
On the following Tour, you’ll connect this exciting city with charming Bielefeld and immerse yourself in the diversity of these two places. Bielefeld is famous for the unusual ‘Bielefeld Conspiracy’, which states that Bielefeld doesn’t actually exist. This bizarre rumour originated as a humorous conspiracy theory and became a national and international topic of conversation. But don’t be fooled – Bielefeld is very real and has a rich history and a vibrant cultural scene. The city is home to impressive architectural masterpieces such as the Sparrenburg, which towers high above the city, and the Dr Oetker World, where you can learn the history of one of the most famous German brands.
This route mostly follows well-developed cycle paths through beautiful nature. In addition, you'll gain a few metres in altitude, which makes it even more fun. A great mix of urban dynamism and soothing nature define this adventure.
You can arrive and depart by train in both Frankfurt and Bielefeld. You’ll always find accommodation at each stage destination, but you should book in advance. The cycle path runs along several rivers, which are scenic places to relax.
You can look forward to an unforgettable journey through these diverse regions. I hope you enjoy your ride!
