This relaxed 5.6 km bike ride takes you from the heart of Bochum to the quieter suburb of Bochum-Hordel. Starting in Bochum, a lively city known for its industrial history and the famous Deutsches Bergbau-Museum, you’ll quickly leave the urban bustle behind and meander along mostly quiet paths and roads. The route is smooth—over 95% is paved, so you can count on an easy roll, with just a hint of cobbles and concrete under your tires.

You'll only face a minor ascent, with the route gently sloping down—so it’s really more of a cruise! Much of your ride is along peaceful, low-traffic ways, perfect for soaking in a mix of city vibes and green suburbs. Finishing in Hordel, you’re on the edge of Bochum’s former mining heartland, close to the still-visible Zeche Hannover, a relic of the area’s coal mining past. All in all, it’s a quick, enjoyable escape that blends Bochum’s history with a breath of suburbia.
