Our favorite downtown Cincinnati bike route that hits many of the coolest locations; read below for the must try destinations. Bike Rental Locations Marked with Red Markers.

Bike Rentals

Red Bike– A new company to Cincinnati, has several bike rental locations around the city which you can pay for in advance or at the kiosk. All Red Bike Locations are marked on the map above

Destinations

Dining, Drinking and Markets

If you don’t want to survive on ballpark coneys and sausages alone while you’re in Cincinnati, there are many dining locations that are accessible by bike. We have compiled some of the restaurants, breweries and markets located within biking distance of the Great American Ball Park.

Rhinegeist– Located in the historic Over the Rhine district, the Rhinegeist Brewery occupies the space of old Moerlein brewery which closed its doors during prohibition (which inspired the name, Ghost of the Rhine). The brewery offers scheduled tours of the facility and also has a taproom if you wish to try a selection of their beers.

Findlay Market– For a bite to eat or an afternoon of shopping, come check out the multitude of vendors selling local products at Findlay Market in Over the Rhine.

Moerlein Brewery– One of Cincinnati’s oldest and most renowned breweries re-opened its doors in 1981 and still sells quality beers from the Moerlein family tradition. Visit the Moerlein Lager House for beer tastings and pairings.

Park+Vine– Visit Park + Vine for a vegan lunch at their cafe or browse organically minded products from books to organic soaps and detergents.

Parks

There are great new eateries, breweries, and markets accessible by bike when you’re not at the game, but the amazing parks around the city will allow you to relax outside of the ballpark. The city’s top ranking parks and recreation department has remodeled several parks around town that are perfect spots to relax and enjoy the sights the queen city has to offer.

Washington Park– Located off Elm St. between 12th and 14th Washington park is situated right across from Cincinnati’s Music Hall in Over the Rhine. The park is an excellent place to relax and enjoy some food from Findlay Market while you view historic Music Hall. There will be bands playing all week so be sure to get up there.

The Riverfront– Check out two parks, Yeatman’s Cove and Smale Riverfront Park right on the Ohio River and a couple minutes walk from Great American Ballpark. You can enjoy the bike paths, food vendors, family-friendly kids play areas (Bring bathing suits and shorts!) or just relax on the river.

Kentucky- If you take the path across the Roebling Suspension bridge (One of the first suspension bridges) there are some amazing viewing locations. Visit Newport on the Levee for to catch a movie or do some shopping but if you continue on the path around the Licking River, there are some great views of the Cincinnati Skyline and old mansions on the Kentucky side of the river.

Bike riding is fun but remember to always wear a helmet, have lights on, use your hand turn signals, and follow the traffic laws. Just because you are on a bike does NOT mean you can run a red light. Be safe in Cincinnati and enjoy the All-Star Game.
