The lively city of Basel in the border triangle with Germany and France offers not only a lot of culture and the Rhine as a lifeline, but also perfect opportunities for biking in the area.
The tour we propose from Basel into the rural surroundings is perfect as a short morning tour or after-work tour. If you have never been to Basel, you will discover numerous exciting facets of the Basel area with its rolling hills, vantage points and bathing opportunities on this gravel tour. From the Bruderholz water tower you have a great view over the city of Basel, at Therwil you can see the nearby Jura hills and along the Birs river you can get back to the city center away from the busy main traffic arteries.
Tip: After an extensive gravel bike tour on a hot summer's day, you can jump into the fresh water of the Birs river. Many Basel residents enjoy the opportunity to cool off on hot summer days by swimming in the Rhine and drifting with the current and letting the city's scenery pass them by.

A special panoramic trail runs from Basel-Bruderholz via a forest path to Therwil and then further along vineyards to Reinach/Aesch. I wish you a lot of fun and relaxation.
