Cycling
The best bike rides on the Bergstrasse.
Easy rides between vineyards and half-timbered towns
Gently rolling routes on good bike paths between Zwingenberg, Bensheim and Heppenheim – past vineyards, orchards, half-timbered old towns, wine taverns and wineries.
Panoramic routes with castle views
More climbing on the slopes of the Odenwald, with wide views across the Rhine plain. Stops include Starkenburg in Heppenheim, Auerbach Castle in Bensheim and the Wachenburg in Weinheim.
Family-friendly bike paths
Gentle gradients, good signposting and away from traffic – with playgrounds and ice cream parlours in the town centres.
Mountain biking
There are demanding trails around the Melibokus, for example the Fuchstrail.
