A bike tour reveals the pulsating capital in all its diversity. Feel the freedom and experience Berlin from a unique perspective.
Berlin, also known as the beating heart of the country, is Germany's largest city. Its excellent network of cycle paths invites exploration on two wheels, guiding cyclists through vibrant history and a wealth of cultural discoveries. Particularly fascinating is the exciting mix of urban flair and nature, which can be perfectly experienced on a cycling tour in Berlin.
Cycle to the Brandenburg Gate , arguably Berlin's most famous landmark. Nearby is the Reichstag , Germany's political center, which is well worth a visit, not least for its distinctive architecture and glass dome. With a wealth of impressions to take home, cycle through the beautiful Tiergarten , Berlin's green heart. This expansive park enchants visitors with its wide meadows and idyllic paths, which also lead to the Victory Column . This impressive monument is a must-see. Our tip: Leave your bike behind and explore this almost island-like oasis on foot, a popular spot for Berliners to relax, exercise, and take long walks.
The Spree River will inevitably cross your path, bringing you to the historic Museum Island . Here you'll find several world-class museums, including the Pergamon Museum (currently undergoing renovations) and the Old Museum , offering outstanding insights into art history. The New Museum even houses a world-class treasure – the over 3.000-year-old bust of Nefertiti. Did you know that Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site ? The well-maintained paths around the island and along the river are perfect for sightseeing on horseback and offer numerous picturesque views of the city. A short break on one of the Spree's banks is also worthwhile to soak up Berlin's unique atmosphere.
Another highlight of your cycling tour through Berlin is the former Tempelhof Airport , now a large park. The wide, open spaces invite you to cycle along the former runway. Tempelhof Park is not only a haven of peace in the city, but also a place where you can experience the history of the airport, which closed in 2008, firsthand. Here you have the opportunity to experience a piece of Berlin's past in an unforgettable way.
The Berlin Wall is inextricably linked to Berlin. Remnants of the wall that once divided West Germany and East Germany can be found throughout the city. The Berlin Wall Cycle Path, stretching 160 kilometers, follows the former course of the Berlin Wall , allowing cyclists to experience the moving history of the division firsthand at numerous memorials and places of remembrance – from the East Side Gallery to Checkpoint Charlie . A cycling holiday in Berlin is therefore more than just discovering a vibrant metropolis; it's also a journey into the past.

Anyone wanting to explore Germany's largest city by bike, but also feeling a touch of wanderlust, should embark on a cross-border cycling tour from Berlin to Copenhagen. This popular tour offers an unforgettable adventure that begins in Berlin 's vibrant city center and leads first through the rolling hills of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania to the Baltic coast . Along the way, you'll encounter picturesque port cities like Rostock and stunning coastal scenery around Warnemünde , before crossing over to the Danish island of Falster . The well-developed cycle paths continue to Denmark's capital, which can be explored by bike with all its sights – the highlight being the Little Mermaid ("Den lille havfrue") on the Langelinie promenade in Copenhagen . Whether you prefer breathtaking natural landscapes or charming world-class cities, this tour offers the perfect blend of both.
