Excursión ciclista de un día de Mülheim an der Ruhr a Heiligenhaus

This bike route takes you from Mülheim, a vibrant city on the Ruhr River known for its parks and a buzzing city center, down to Heiligenhaus, a peaceful town with a charming historic core and a laid-back vibe. Covering just under 26 km, this ride is a pleasant mix of urban cycling and scenic countryside.

You'll spend most of your time rolling along paved paths and quiet roads, so it’s pretty relaxed for most types of bikes. There’s some gravel and unpaved bits—great for a change of pace and a touch of adventure, just keep an eye out if you’re on skinny tires. The route is mostly gentle, though you’ll climb nearly 300 meters in total. Expect some nice views from the higher spots, especially as you approach Heiligenhaus, which sits on the edge of the scenic Bergisches Land.

Pack a snack, enjoy the greenery, and soak up the calm as you pedal from city life into the heart of the Rhineland countryside!
