Excursión ciclista de un día de Haltern am See a Münster

This scenic cycling route starts in Haltern am See, a lovely lakeside town in the northern Ruhr area, known for its relaxed atmosphere and beautiful reservoirs. You’ll pedal north through a blend of lush forests and fields, with most of your ride on smooth paved and asphalt paths, making it perfect for a steady cruise. There are a few stretches of gravel and paving stones, so expect a bit of variety under your tires.

With gentle ascents (about 180 meters up), the ride is mostly flat. You'll pass through quiet rural landscapes and small Westphalian villages—keep an eye out for farmland and the occasional windmill! The final destination is Münster, famous for its historic Old Town and vibrant cycling culture. Don’t be surprised to see as many bikes as people as you roll into the city! If you have the time, grab a coffee at one of Münster’s many cafés or take a spin around the Promenade, the city’s green ring encircling the center. All told, it’s a pleasant and rewarding ride—ideal for a relaxed day out on two wheels.
