Paseo rápido en bici de Witten a Herdecke

This ride takes you from Witten to Herdecke—a scenic little adventure of about 18.4 km through the Ruhr area’s green heart. You’ll start in Witten, known for its industrial heritage and the peaceful banks of the River Ruhr. From there, you’ll enjoy mostly paved and asphalt paths, with a few stretches of gentle gravel to keep things interesting. Most of your route is on bike paths or quiet roads, so it’s a relaxed trip with minimal traffic stress.

You’ll tackle some mild hills along the way—nothing too dramatic, just enough to get your legs working and provide some pretty views of forested valleys and meadows. After winding through the countryside, you’ll arrive in Herdecke, a charming town perched between the Ruhr and Hengsteysee lake. Herdecke is famous for its beautiful half-timbered houses and cozy cafés, perfect for a post-ride treat.

All in all, it’s a great ride for anyone wanting to explore the Ruhr’s calmer corners without venturing too far off the beaten path!
