Cycle tours on the Ems Cycle Route
The EmsRadweg offers "cycling river pleasure" in the truest sense of the word. From its source in Paderborn Land to its mouth near Emden, the Ems forms a wonderful blue backdrop for a cycling trip on the EmsRadweg.
The approx. 375 km long EmsRadweg runs almost without any ascents. This makes the cycle path ideal for families and groups. Along the way, cyclists can expect numerous highlights and an often downright picturesque landscape. The EmsRadweg begins at the foot of the Teutoburg Forest and through green fields into Münsterland. The Ems meadows between Warendorf and Rheine are among the most beautiful sections of the route. Well-known and worth seeing towns such as Warendorf, Telgte, Münster and Rheine offer culture and enjoyment along the route.
The EmsRadweg leads through the wide landscape of the Emsland past Lingen to Papenburg with the famous Meyer shipyard. The Ems has long been navigable here and the maritime impression intensifies with every kilometre northwards. Emden, the terminus of your cycle tour on the EmsRadweg, marks the mouth of the Ems into the North Sea.
A varied cycling tour with cultural highlights, urban treasures and beautiful natureawaits you!
