Cycling day trip from Nottuln to Münster

This scenic ride takes you from the charming village of Nottuln to the vibrant city of Münster, covering just over 23 km of mostly paved paths—perfect for a relaxed day out on two wheels. The route is gentle and rolls through the lush Münsterland countryside, sprinkled with picturesque farmhouses and windmills. You’ll experience a pleasant mix of well-kept cycle paths and quiet roads, so it’s easy to just enjoy the view.

Most of the ride is on smooth asphalt, with a touch of paving stones and a little gravel here and there, but nothing too challenging.
