Overview

About this collection

Short test loop through radrevier.ruhr: ideal to take in the typical mix of industrial backdrop and green spaces. Mostly riding on smooth asphalt and developed bike paths, with a few sections on gravel and cobblestones. Occasionally along busy streets, but most of the time relaxed on paths away from traffic. Slightly rolling profile with moderate elevation gain – manageable without great fitness. Perfect for city, trekking, or gravel bikes. Starting point is flexible; you can start practically anywhere. Along the way, canals, parks, and slag heaps pop up – exactly what makes the Ruhr region so special. Ideal as a short after-work ride or to get a feel for the region before planning longer tours.
