Munich / Cycling groups in Munich

Cycling groups in Munich — rides to the lakes & along the Isar

Munich is flat, green and surrounded by lakes — perfect for cycling. From a relaxed Sunday ride along the Isar to a 100 km road loop, riding with a group is more fun and safer.

On Hellohood people post rides with the distance, the pace and the meeting point, so you know what you’re signing up for.
