Stadtradeln STADTRADELN 2026 (09.05. – 29.05.2026)

The city of Herzogenaurach has been participating in the STADTRADELN campaign organised by Klima-Bündnis Services for many years. The initiative aims to encourage people to cycle in their everyday lives and promote more climate-friendly mobility, reduced traffic and improved quality of life. Over a period of 21 consecutive days, participants form teams and aim to cycle as many kilometres as possible. The amount of CO₂ emissions avoided as a result is also calculated. 

In 2026, Herzo United Climate Action took part in the campaign. Through active promotion among the participating companies and generous sponsorship, both the number of participants and the number of kilometres cycled increased significantly, reaching their highest levels to date. To encourage young people in particular to use bicycles for their everyday journeys, a separate ranking for school teams was introduced for the first time. At an awards ceremony in June, the best teams and individual cyclists in the various categories were recognised. As a token of appreciation, prizes included a bicycle service station, bike safety checks, ice cream vouchers and other prizes. The joint participation in STADTRADELN demonstrates how sustainable mobility can be encouraged through simple and engaging activities in everyday life.
