Sortie rapide à vélo de Ahlen à Hamm

Looking for a leisurely ride between two classic Westphalian towns? Hop on your bike in Ahlen—famous for its mining history and charming old town vibes—and set off south toward Hamm. This roughly 20-kilometer route is perfect for an afternoon spin, with gentle climbs and even gentler descents along mostly paved surfaces—expect smooth asphalt for more than half the way, with just a splash of paving stones and gravel to keep it interesting.

You’ll pedal along a mix of dedicated cycleways and peaceful paths, so it’s a chill ride suitable for all levels. The route weaves through the green countryside and, as you near Hamm, be sure to look out for the town’s iconic glass elephant at Maximilianpark—and maybe break for an ice cream nearby. Both towns are steeped in local culture and surrounded by scenic farmland, making this ride a sweet slice of Münsterland life.
