Whether you ride a city bike, racing bike, folding bike, e-bike, or a bike with the kids in a trailer, one thing is certain – cycling is a unique way to discover Hamburg. A relaxed or sporty ride on the city’s great cycling routes takes you to great coffee places, delicious fish stalls, and fun playgrounds, as well as beaches along the Elbe River, parks, and beer gardens.

The city of Hamburg’s cycling campaign ‘Fahr ein solidarisches Hamburg’ (cycle in Hamburg in solidarity) invites you to discover the city in this Collection. We present eight themed Tours that take you through Hamburg, each showing you a very special side of the city. On our rides, you discover the most legendary film locations, the most beautiful beaches, and the best playgrounds. Foodies, nature lovers, and ship-watchers will be in their element here – our Tours are for everyone.

The starting points of the varied theme Tours are easy to reach by public transport. They are all located at StadtRAD stations, so you can rent a bike when you arrive. As a cyclist in Hamburg, you can also enjoy other great services such as bike+ride, air stations, and leaf and road clearance during winter. The cycle routes, which run through the city in the shape of a star, are awesome. You can enjoy riding on smooth asphalt and quiet side roads. The cycle route network is being expanded, too.
