Lippe River in the Lippe Floodplain Nature Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • River

It's simply wonderful to experience the Lippe River up close and cycle right along it. The landscape is largely unspoiled, and you can observe numerous birds.

Always very nice to drive along here. After a lot of rain it can also get slippery. Reasonable tires are a must, especially in the back section of the forest.

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.

November 22, 2025,R/ST (1/2) "Kleine Novembertour 2025" Hamm -> Lippstadt. U.a. Bockum-Hamm-Kanal entlang - Lippborg - Herzfeld ->Lippstadt. 50,7 KM. 100 HM.

A wonderful tour in wintry temperatures. The entire tour was in sunshine. Regular breaks in lovely cafes. It was delightful.

My winter gear is excellent, maybe just a small cold spot in the crotch.

Otherwise, the heated insoles and neoprene overshoes are simply fantastic. I highly recommend them ;-)

I took the train to Hamm and back along the Hamm Datteln Canal and the Lippe. Made a short stop at the Kesseler Mühle restaurants and at Loesmann auf der Heide. Great localities. From photo 1 of the canal lock, the tour is really top and recommended. Best regards

We liked Lippstadt very much. Nice hotel, great dinner and loads of things to see. Today was the best day of the tour so far. Again it was almost exclusively through beautiful nature. In some cases, individual sections came very close to the Lahn cycle path 😬. But see for yourself ☺️

Today we start our first multi-day tour, and we're doing it with the new bikes. Just a little bit of adjusting the saddle and the handles and everything's fine.
The start is in Hamm at the main train station. Here we went along the Dattel-Hamm canal, past the RWE Westfalen power plant. In the Lippe nature reserve we can watch …

The fourth stage really had a lot to offer, one highlight was definitely the ferry ride, but there was again a lot of pure nature.

July 26, 2021,Römerlipperoute Etappe 3 Lippstadt nach Hamm

Very nice stage through the Lippeauen. Flat and therefore easy to move. The only problem: the few cafes and country houses are open on Mondays. Rest day

There is also a do-it-yourself ferry crossing
