Berlin: Bike Rental

Berlin: Bike Rental is a self-guided cycling hire service that puts you on two wheels across one of Europe's most cycle-friendly capitals. Berlin has over 620 km (390 miles) of dedicated bike paths, and this rental gives you the freedom to cover the city at your own pace. Hire includes a bike suited to your size and age, plus a helmet, with the starting point at 1A Panoramastraße in the Mitte district, close to Alexanderplatz and the TV Tower.

From the starting point, riders can head west along Unter den Linden to the Brandenburg Gate and the Reichstag, then continue into the Tiergarten, Berlin's largest urban park. The route east takes in the East Side Gallery, one of the longest remaining sections of the Berlin attractions landscape, alongside the Berlin Wall memorial stretch and Checkpoint Charlie, all key sites from the Cold War division of the city. Further south, Tempelhof Field, the former airport decommissioned in 2008, offers wide open runways repurposed as cycling and leisure space. Booking covers a set rental period with the helmet included, and cancellation is accepted before the chosen timeslot.
