Springorumtrasse Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

By expanding the former Springorum railway line in Bochum into a cycle and hiking path, the Ruhr Regional Association (RVR) has created an important north-south connection right through the city.

The route, which is also suitable for everyday use, runs from Altenbochum to the Ruhr, where it connects to the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path.

Jahrhunderthalle Bochum

Highlight • Monument

The Jahrhunderthalle in Bochum is an industrial monument and cultural highlight in one. It is an anchor point on the Route of Industrial Heritage and venue for events such as concerts, theater and shows. With the Ruhrtriennale, the Jahrhunderthalle houses the most important cultural festival in the Ruhrgebiet.

As a prime example of the structural change in the Ruhr area, the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum stands for the new understanding of culture in the Ruhr Metropolis. It is the center of the festival ground Ruhr, landmark of Bochum and dares the border crossing between tradition and modernity.

Erzbahn Swing

Highlight • Bridge

A spectacular entry into the Erzbahntrasse. Architecturally interesting, but above all beautiful to look at and quite practical for cyclists and pedestrians. Actually, the route could also be called the bridge route. On the following kilometers there are still some remarkable bridge constructions...

Modeled after English garden cities. Appealing and one of the finest examples of housing developments from the Ruhr region's mining era. Built around 1912.

Springorum Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The official name "Spingorum-Radweg" refers today to both the older part from Dahlhausen to Weitmar (water-bound ceiling) and the newer paved northern part to Altenbochum. Low-incline connection from the Ruhr into the city or from Weitmar on the new "Parkband West" to the Westpark and the Erzbahntrasse.
New from 07.06.2019: completely asphalted.
