The Werseradweg is really an excellent route. Very rural with many informative signs along the way and opportunities to relax. Very nice route and well marked. A procedure is practically impossible.

April 11, 2024,Münster 1: Zum Golfplatz Café 9

Nice first tour in Münsterland, along the Werse and later through the muddy forest to the "Historic Waterworks Hohe Ward" and to the "Golf Course Cafe 9". At the end of the round we head to Stadthafen 1 for a beer.

Very nice route, especially on the Werseradweg and the DO Emskanal. There are currently some construction sites after Albersloh with diversions for cyclists too. The route here is really bad (sand, sand, sand!!)

Today to the Werse. 🚴🚴‍♂️

Starting point Wilhelmstraße, past the Schloßplatz to the promenade.

The Send (fair) is currently taking place on the Schloßplatz.

Above Lake Aasee we drove through the promenade, via Wolbeckerstrasse and Schillerstrasse to the Dortmund Ems canal.

Despite the holiday (All Saints' Day) there wasn't that much walking on the Werse. It was also good to cycle here to Albersloh, then over through a lot of forest (Hohe Ward) to the Dortmund Ems Canal, there too a very good bike path up to Schmitz Kühlken, but we wanted to stay on the canal despite the construction site. …

The cycle path on the Werse is great - unfortunately there were a few closures at the end on the canal promenade - but otherwise: high level 👌👍😂

A nice tour .. We drove from the campsite to the Pleistermühle, there the Werse cycle path to Angelmodde .. through the High Ward (a good path through the forest, wide) to the Hiltruper lake, along the canal ... in the port, and after a wheat (alcohol-free) back to the square....
