Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Essen do Heiligenhaus

This ride takes you from the lively city of Essen, known for its industrial heritage and vibrant arts scene, down south to the charming town of Heiligenhaus. The route covers just over 37 km, mostly along quiet paths and dedicated cycleways—so you can expect a peaceful and scenic journey with minimal traffic. With a bit of climbing (about 350 meters of ascent), you’ll get a gentle workout, and the rolling landscapes will treat you to changing views between urban greenery, open countryside, and small towns.

You’ll mostly be rolling on smooth asphalt and paved surfaces, with occasional stretches of gravel and old paving stones—just enough to keep things interesting, but nothing too rough. Once you reach Heiligenhaus, you can catch your breath in its cozy town center or take a stroll through one of the nearby parks. This is a great day ride for anyone keen to explore the region and enjoy a mix of history, nature, and small-town charm!
