Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Herdecke do Werdohl

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming town of Herdecke—known for its half-timbered old town and proximity to the Ruhr River—out to the green hills of Werdohl in the Sauerland region. Covering nearly 48 km, the route offers lots of variety, with about 73% of it on paved surfaces and a whopping 62% spent cruising along quiet roads.

As you wind along the rolling landscape, be ready for some decent climbs—total ascent hovers just above 1,000 meters and the highest point’s at 464 meters—so you’ll get a solid workout. You’ll travel through picturesque villages, wooded valleys, and broad fields, soaking up views that change mile by mile. While most surfaces are smooth, you’ll also find stretches of classic cobbles and the occasional unpaved patch—just enough to keep you on your toes.

Arriving in Werdohl, you’ll find a small town nestled between wooded hills, typical for this lush corner of North Rhine-Westphalia. It’s a perfect ending for a rewarding day in the saddle!
