Excursión ciclista de un día de Dortmund a Münster

Cycling from Dortmund to Münster

Ready for a scenic ride between two of North Rhine-Westphalia’s coolest cities? This 65 km route starts in Dortmund, a lively city known for its industrial heritage, buzzing football culture, and vibrant pubs. From the heart of Dortmund, you’ll cruise northwards across mostly paved paths, rolling past peaceful farmland and small towns.

The ride itself is friendly on the legs with just gentle climbs, making it perfect for a relaxed day out. You’ll spend most of your journey on dedicated bike paths (about two-thirds of the route), so you can focus on soaking up the countryside—keep an eye out for classic half-timbered houses and green fields.

About mid-way, take a break at a village bakery or just pause to enjoy the serene Münsterland landscape. When you arrive in Münster, the “bicycle capital” of Germany, reward yourself with a coffee in the picturesque old town or a stroll around the historic Prinzipalmarkt.

Pack a snack, bring a camera, and enjoy the ride—this is North Rhine-Westphalia bike touring at its best!
