Tips

Road cycling

On the "Alte Kölner Straße" there are some spots that are good for watching planes. This road runs east along the airport and there are a few small lay-bys or parking lots (free) where you have to walk a few meters. But be sure to bring time and patience with you, as Cologne-Bonn is not Frankfurt and it can sometimes take a while before the next plane arrives. You can find a very good spot map on the Spotter-CGN website.
