Explore Cologne by bike!

City history meets lifestyle: The "Fascination Cologne" bike tour artfully weaves historical landmarks with contemporary urban culture, creating a multifaceted portrait of this Rhine metropolis. 

Within a comfortable group size of a maximum of 15 people, this approximately three-hour tour covers a distance of about 15 kilometers, navigating carefully selected routes through distinct neighborhoods and different epochs. Beginning in the authentic Eigelstein quarter, the route continues through the atmospheric Agnesviertel district and across the northern greenbelt, crossing over to "Schäl Sick", Cologne’s eastern side on the right bank of the Rhine. Here, participants discover not only well-known landmarks but also subtle local specialties and insights into subcultural spaces. Prominent historical sites, such as the Hohenzollern Bridge with its iconic love locks and the majestic Cologne Cathedral, attract attention, along with the architecturally appealing Rheinauhafen quarter featuring its recently established infrastructure.

The tour provides accessible background information on urban development, highlighting Cologne’s Roman origins, medieval heritage, and significant impulses from modern times.
