Möhnesee shore tour

The cycle tour circles a large part of the Möhnesee, almost always close to the shore, so that orientation is not a major challenge. This leaves all the more time for the views of the Westfalen Sea from both the north and south shores and for the attractions along the route.

If we start the circular tour on the north bank, the beautifully designed Seepark is the perfect place to start. Both the various play and sports facilities for young and old, as well as the gastronomic offerings can be used as a warm-up or as an end to the cycle tour. The ride eastwards takes you past the Uferlos lido (for a fee), where a sandy beach invites you to linger in summer.

The route continues to the romantic Kanzelbrücke bridge, whose pillars protrude from the water like church pulpits and form a picturesque photo motif. The nearby district of Völlinghausen offers leisure activities such as mini golf and the wildlife park (free of charge). After crossing the Kanzelbrücke bridge, the route continues west along the south bank. The Möhneauen-Völlinghausen information trail offers cyclists and pedestrians the opportunity to discover the ecological and cultural-historical features of the area at 12 information stations over a length of 2.4 kilometers.

The Körbecke pedestrian and cycle bridge would be a shortcut to get back to the Seepark. After crossing the Delecke bridge, it is again worth taking a short detour, e.g. at the traffic circle to the left to the public bathing area with sunbathing lawn. Or turn right at the traffic circle and shortly afterwards turn left uphill to the Drüggelte Chapel, which is well worth seeing and is the subject of many myths. From here, it is only a few kilometers back to the Seepark in Körbecke.
