Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Mönchengladbach do Niederkrüchten

This scenic ride takes you from the lively city of Mönchengladbach, known for its vibrant football culture and leafy parks, out to the idyllic village of Niederkrüchten. Covering around 26.5 km, this mostly flat route is perfect for a relaxed morning or afternoon outing. You’ll roll through serene countryside, following mostly quiet paths and rarely-traveled roads—so expect lots of peaceful rural vibes.

Over half of the route is well-paved, and you’ll enjoy stretches of smooth asphalt, with occasional charming paving stones adding some variety under your wheels. There are only gentle climbs and descents, so you won’t need to be a mountain goat for this ride. With Mönchengladbach’s historic vibe at your back, you’ll finish up in Niederkrüchten, a lovely spot on the edge of the Maas-Schwalm-Nette Nature Park—great for a picnic or an extra nature walk if you’re not ready to head home.

Pack a snack, enjoy the open air, and don’t forget to snap some photos along the way!
