We will help you with your holiday planning and want to inspire you with a few travel ideas by bike. Whether it's a short cycling weekend or an extensive cycling holiday for a whole week: We'll show you what a cycling holiday in the Ruhr area could look like - imitation is allowed and recommended!
Travel ideas for your Ruhr vacation by bike
For the perfect cycling holiday experience, we have developed four travel ideas for you, with which you can start your own personal cycling expedition from home and get to know the cycling area from a new perspective. Experience the north with the Roman Lippe Route or the south with that Ruhr Valley Cycle Path – both surprisingly combined as a small round trip. Make your way over the circuit of the Industrial heritage route by bike or ride around the entire Pott - with the RuhrtalRadweg, Rheinradweg, Römer-Lippe-Route and through the radrevier.ruhr!
Travel inspiration for the radrevier.ruhr
Holiday idea 1: A short taster holiday in the Ruhr by bike (1 night / 2 days)
Don't you think that the Ruhr area is a worthwhile cycling destination? Then let yourself be persuaded and do a little “trial holiday by bike”! Because with just one overnight stay you can experience the region on two great day trips. Our RevierRoutes are ideal for this and you will quickly find that you have to come back again.
Holiday idea 2: Glück-Auf - A small mining micro-adventure
Experience a maximum cycling adventure with little luggage and little effort. This sporty cycle tour is all about mining. Overnight stays in the replica mining tunnel. This tour is also suitable for sporty gravel bikers.
Holiday idea 3: A long bike weekend (2 nights / 3 days)
A classic to experience a short cycling holiday without vacation days. If you can finish work early on Friday and get to the Ruhr area quickly, you can still do a first introductory tour on Friday. Classic all-day tours follow on Saturday and Sunday and you can look back on an eventful cycling weekend.
Holiday idea 4: A long weekend in the radrevier.ruhr (3 nights / 4 days)
The long bridge weekends in particular are ideal for getting to know the radrevier.ruhr a little more intensively. And you have the choice of making a short round trip or going on exciting day trips from a fixed accommodation without a lot of luggage. We have worked out a little bit of both travel ideas for you.
