Gita in bici di un giorno da Oberhausen a Gelsenkirchen

This scenic cycle ride starts in Oberhausen, a city famous for its Gasometer landmark and expansive Centro shopping mall. You’ll wind along mostly paved, quiet roads and peaceful paths (almost 90% smooth riding!), making it an ideal route for a relaxed outing or daily commute. Expect a gentle climb—just over 170 meters ascent and a max elevation under 100 meters—so nothing too intimidating, even for less seasoned riders.

As you head east, you'll skirt parks and green corridors, catching glimpses of the Ruhr region’s industrial heritage and revitalized landscapes. The route avoids busy roads, offering a blend of urban and leafy backdrops. Gravel and paving stones make up just a small part, but keep an eye out for those for a bit of variety.

You'll finish in Gelsenkirchen, the heart of the Ruhr and home to the famed Schalke 04 football club. Whether you’re arriving for a match, exploring the city’s history, or cruising just for fun, this ride gives you a relaxed and enjoyable cross-city experience!
