Paseo rápido en bici de Papenburgo a Weener

Looking for a relaxed ride through the Emsland? This route takes you from the charming canal town of Papenburg—known for its famous Meyer Werft shipyard and lovely Dutch-inspired drawbridges—up to the peaceful town of Weener in East Frisia.

Covering about 16.4 kilometers, you’ll find yourself gliding mostly on smooth asphalt and quiet access roads, with just a hint of adventure on looser surfaces. The route is nearly flat, so you can focus on soaking up the green countryside and idyllic waterways instead of tackling tough hills.

Along the way, watch for picturesque farmsteads, open fields, and perhaps the odd sheep or two. You’ll finish in Weener, a riverside town with a well-preserved historic center and the scenic Ems river—perfect for a coffee break or a quick explore before you head back. Expect low traffic and a peaceful vibe the whole way. Happy cycling!
