This relaxed ride starts off in Herten—a former coal mining town turned green oasis in the northern Ruhr area. You’ll roll through about 15 km of mostly paved paths and quiet roads, making the trip easy on the legs and perfect for everyday bikes. Expect a gentle mix of slight ups and downs (ascent isn’t too demanding!), and you’ll breeze past a patchwork of parks, suburban neighborhoods, and some remnants of the region’s industrial past.

With over 85% of the route paved and nearly half on dedicated paths, it’s safe and scenic. Don’t miss a quick detour in Herten for a look at Schloss Herten, a moated castle surrounded by parkland. Finish up your ride in Gladbeck, another classic Ruhr town with great spots for a coffee break or a stroll through the city park. All in all, it’s a mellow spin—great for a sunny afternoon outing!
