Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Oer-Erkenschwick do Castrop-Rauxel

Set out from Oer-Erkenschwick, a friendly little town edged by woodlands in the heart of the Ruhr area, and head south towards Castrop-Rauxel. This 16 km ride will take you through a mostly peaceful vibe—over 70% of the route keeps you on quiet roads—with a gentle mix of asphalt and paved surfaces, so it’s comfy whether you’re rolling on a city bike or something speedier.

Don’t be surprised to spot a patch of paving stones or a brief section of unpaved path; they’ll just add a bit of variety to your adventure! The route is relatively flat, with less than 50 meters of climbing, making it a relaxed cruise suitable for everyday cyclists. Castrop-Rauxel greets you at the end, known for its rich industrial history and green spaces like the scenic Stadtgarten. Whether you’re looking for a quick ride out of town or just want to explore between two classic Ruhrgebiet communities, this is a scenic, easygoing trip that captures the best of the region.
