Münsterland region
Cycling through Teutoburger forest
From Münster – a large university city known for its cathedral – head towards Teutoburger forest, a place steeped in legend and fairy tales. The German leg of Euro cycle route R1 takes cyclists through here, so you can easily follow the signs for R1 or D-route 3. The entire route leads from Boulogne-sur-mer to St. Petersburg, but that is for another day!Featured route in the Münsterland region
Sauerland
Biking with bats
Sauerland is different. Not as densely populated as the rest of North Rhine-Westphalia, yet close to its large cities, the quieter region is a natural sanctuary and very popular for day trips. The Sauerland cycle ring is 84 kilometers (52 miles) long and takes you on a circular tour with plenty of highlights – including a tunnel inhabited by bats.Featured route in the Sauerland region
