Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Herne à Witten

Kick off your ride in Herne, a city known for its rich industrial heritage and bustling city center in the heart of the Ruhrgebiet. This route is a comfortable 21 km roll almost entirely on smooth, paved surfaces—with a whopping 88% on asphalt and barely a hint of gravel or cobbles.

You'll wind your way along mostly quiet roads and scenic paths (no hectic traffic here!), so it's perfect for a relaxed spin or a steady training ride. The terrain features a gentle ascent and some mild descents—enough to get your legs working but nothing too challenging.

Arriving in Witten, you'll catch the vibe of a city bordered by the Ruhr River and surrounded by green spaces and woodland, with a charming old town perfect for grabbing a post-ride coffee. All in all, this journey is a pleasant, safe, and slightly hilly way to connect two lively Ruhr cities. Enjoy the ride!
