À vélo de Mülheim an der Ruhr à Meiderich

This fun ride takes you from Mülheim, an industrial gem by the Ruhr River, to Meiderich in Duisburg—both known for their rich industrial heritage and green parks. The route is just under 17 km, making it perfect for a relaxed ride or even a casual bike commute.

You’ll roll mostly along paved and asphalt paths, with a good chunk (about 60%) dedicated to cycling paths, ensuring a stress-free journey. Parts of the trail include stretches over old paving stones and even some gravel, keeping things interesting but still very manageable for most bikes.

You won’t have to tackle any serious hills—just some gentle ups and downs, as the route only climbs about 45 meters in total. Mülheim offers riverside charm at the start, and when you arrive in Meiderich, you’re close to Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord, a huge park built in a former steelworks—perfect for a post-ride wander.

All in all, it’s a great mix of urban scenery, industrial nostalgia, and peaceful cycleways, ideal for anyone wanting to explore the Ruhr area by bike!
