Karlsruhe

Karlsruhe is a cyclist's hub with flat city routes radiating outward like spokes—the Badenia Gravelride and Vom Rhein zum Schwarzwald showcase the region's dual terrain of Rhine Valley flatland and Black Forest climbs within 20km. Running is straightforward and fast on the city's grid of tree-lined streets and along the Alb river, though serious hill work requires the same northwest push toward the Pfälzer Wald. The 160km loop from Rhine to Black Forest has made Karlsruhe a fixture on Germany's cycling event calendar.
