Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Lemgo à Leopoldshöhe

If you’re up for a relaxed ride through some of North Rhine-Westphalia’s prettiest corners, try cycling from Lemgo to Leopoldshöhe! Starting in Lemgo—a charming old Hanseatic town with half-timbered houses and a cozy Altstadt—you’ll set off on a mostly paved route (expect smooth asphalt for almost the whole way) that covers a gentle 21.6 km. The scenery is classic Lippe district: green fields, small patches of woodland, and the occasional sleepy village.

There’s a mild climb at the start, but nothing too taxing, with a total ascent of just over 100 meters before things even out. Most of your journey winds along quiet paths and little-trafficked roads, so it’s peaceful riding with very few busy sections.

You’ll finish in Leopoldshöhe, a friendly town known for its village atmosphere and local markets. It’s a perfect spot to grab a snack and relax after the ride. All in all, this route is a great choice for anyone looking for a scenic and stress-free cycling experience between two lovely Westphalian towns!
