Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Minden do Porta Westfalica

Get ready for a scenic spin from Minden to Porta Westfalica—it's a leisurely ride of just under 8 km, perfect for a relaxed afternoon outing! Starting in historic Minden, famous for its charming old town and impressive waterways where the Mittelland Canal crosses over the River Weser, you'll enjoy mostly smooth cycling on paved paths and quiet roads.

The route gently rolls southward, so you'll hardly notice the moderate ups and downs (the ascent and descent are minimal).

More than half the ride is on dedicated cycleways, offering peace of mind and a pleasant rhythm to your pedal strokes.

As you approach Porta Westfalica—“the Gate to Westphalia”—look out for the dramatic Weser gorge and the towering Kaiser Wilhelm Monument, landmarks that mark the entrance to the Westphalian region. This ride combines easy-going cycling with beautiful river landscapes and a touch of local history. Enjoy the breeze and take your time exploring at both ends!
