Highlight • Bridge

Practical thing :) For €2 or so you can easily get to the other side of the river in just a few minutes!

Lülsdorfer Weiden

Nature Reserve

15.4 km

Rhine Cycle Path Cologne–Zündorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

On this section, it just rolls really well. The newly created Rhine dam has created a flood basin on the right for flooding, on the left the Lülsdorfer Weiden form an almost untouched retreat area for animals. And the dam itself is made for cyclists. Topfeben, beautifully tarred, deserted. The closer you get to the Cologne suburb of Zündorf, the busier it gets. For a good reason: In Zündorf attracts the "Groov", a leisure island right on the Rhine. She invites you to rest. In addition to a marina, there are pedal boats, numerous restaurants and a mini golf course.

Groov, Zündorf

Highlight • Settlement

Very nice place to strengthen yourself.
Drinks, ice cream, fries everything you need :-)
The main thing here is to be considerate of pedestrians.
Think of the call of cyclists....

Fountain at the Zündorfer Groov

Highlight • Natural Monument

Known as the "leisure island", the Groov in the Porz-Zündorf district with its expansive sandy beaches, old trees and marina is a very special spot in the Cologne city area.

Ferry Cologne-Weiß–Zündorf

Highlight • Rest Area

Krokodil and Krokodilo ferry cyclists and pedestrians back and forth between Weiß and Zündorf. A good connection between the right and left banks of the Rhine if you want to avoid the annoying bridges. But check the timetable first: faehre-koelnkrokodil.de/fahrplan.html
For a long time it was said that the ferry service would have to be discontinued because no successor could be found for the very old captain. Now a young man is at the helm.
