Werse Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Werse cycle path between Beckum and Ahlen has been widened after its redesign in connection with the renaturation of the Werse and runs very closely along the Werse. Therefore very beautiful and idyllic and very traffic-calmed. Simply fantastic.

In the course of their renaturation, the Werse has been allowed in many places to make their way across a width of up to approx. 70 m. The bike path is nestled in elegant curves led and with a slight slope / rise to the course of the river. In dryness, the unpaved road is very good to drive, while in the wet there are places that make it difficult to get ahead. Scenic unique and because there is hardly any traffic, the Werseradweg is a top recommendation in this area.

Great section of the Werseradweg, between Ahlen and Beckum, always right along the Werse. There are also a few nice rest areas here, some of which are covered.

Zeche Westfalen Rail Trail

Highlight • Cycleway

Converted railway lines have their very own character. Often away from the main roads, this former railway line also leads behind farms and right through the middle of agriculturally used areas. And this section has less incline compared to other routes between Dolberg/ Uentrop (Lippe) and Ahlen.

A very good bike path. Leisurely or fast, the cycle path here belongs firmly in a tour. There are small rest areas along the route.

The Datteln-Hamm Canal in Hamm is very nice to cycle and leads from a short distance from the Uentrop power plant to Datteln. It is around 50 km long and is also in the immediate vicinity of the train station.
