Bornheim straddles the transition between the Vorgebirge foothills and the Cologne Bay in North Rhine-Westphalia, a position that has kept it agricultural while tying it closely to the Cologne–Bonn urban corridor. The municipality lies west of the Rhine, between Cologne and Bonn, with fields and market gardens still marking many districts. White asparagus is a local seasonal speciality, celebrated each spring in farm shops and restaurants, and Bornheim is well known for its cultivation in the Rhineland. Stadtbahn line 18 connects the area with both neighbouring cities, while local roads lead towards the low wooded slopes of the Vorgebirge.
