Rhine Cycle Route/Romantic Rhine (left side)

On the left bank of the Rhine, the Rhine Cycle Route has been developed as an independent cycle path along its entire length and is very easy to cycle. Sometimes the cycle path runs directly along the banks of the Rhine, sometimes in urban areas along the Rhine promenades or as an independent cycle path alongside the road.
Always follow the cycle route signposts (white signs with green lettering) with the official blue route logo of the Rhine Cycle Route-EuroVelo15, which is displayed there as an additional plaque.
The Rhine Cycle Route leads through a unique cultural landscape characterised by steep vineyards, more than 60 castles and palaces and medieval towns.
Difficulty:
Without limitations suitable for everyone.

Character:
In town cycle paths or along the road without separate cycle path

Asphalt paths with the exception of some stages on towpaths

Out of town exclusively separate cycle paths
