Quick ride by bicycle from Lüdinghausen to Senden

This cycling route takes you from the charming town of Lüdinghausen northwards to Senden—a perfect trip if you want to enjoy the peaceful Münsterland countryside. Starting in Lüdinghausen, known for its impressive trio of castles (like the moated Burg Vischering), you’ll roll out on mostly quiet roads and smooth asphalt, with just a touch of gravel and unpaved stretches to keep things interesting.

The ride is relatively gentle, with minor elevation changes, making it great for an easy-going pace. Most of your route winds through tranquil rural scenes—which, in this region, often means passing fields, hedgerows, and the occasional canal. It’s not all farmland, though; you’ll spot tree-lined paths and classic Westphalian brick houses along the way.

The route finishes in Senden, a small but lively town popular with cyclists thanks to the Dortmund-Ems Canal and its laid-back riverside cafés. Grab a snack or a coffee by the water and soak in the welcoming vibe before heading back or exploring further!
