Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Gelsenkirchen do Oberhausen

This scenic cycling route kicks off in Gelsenkirchen, a city famous for its football legacy (hello, FC Schalke 04!) and impressive industrial history. You’ll pedal southwest for about 25.6 km, heading towards Oberhausen. The ride features gentle hills with a total ascent and descent around 146 meters, but nothing too challenging—perfect for a relaxed day out.

You’ll spend most of your journey on smooth, paved surfaces, winding along quiet roads and leafy paths. There’s very little time spent on busy streets, so you can really soak in the sights and enjoy the ride. Expect to pass through some green patches, post-industrial landscapes, and a hint of the Ruhr’s iconic industrial charm.

Arriving in Oberhausen, you’ll find a city that’s transformed its coal-mining past into vibrant cultural hotspots. Don’t miss the chance to check out the massive CentrO shopping center, or the striking Gasometer, now an exhibition space. Whether you’re a Ruhr region regular or just rolling through, this route promises a relaxed ride with plenty to discover along the way.
