Giro veloce in bici da Herne a Castrop-Rauxel

Hop on your bike for a pleasant ride from Herne to Castrop-Rauxel! Starting in Herne—a city known for its mining history and the impressive Schloss Strünkede—this 8.5 km route is a great way to explore a quieter side of the Ruhr area. You’ll mostly be cruising along peaceful, low-traffic roads (about 80%), with a smooth mix of paved and asphalt surfaces under your tires.

There’s a gentle ascent of just under 54 meters, so you’ll get a little workout but nothing too serious, and most of the route is easy riding. You’ll pass through a mix of urban scenery and greener spots, with a few short stretches on tracks and paths to keep things interesting.

Finishing up in Castrop-Rauxel, you can check out its half-timbered houses and maybe grab a coffee at the charming market square. If you’re up for a relaxed ride with a touch of local character, this is the route for you!
