Ems Riverside Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Contemplative tour along the water, well signposted. Just make sure to drive on the "right" side, which is paved. Otherwise it will be difficult.

June 29, 2022,Aschendorf entlang der Ems nach Haren und zurück nach A.

Riding a bike along the Ems is just plain fun. The bike (hiking) path is in great condition, even with a racing bike it is easy to get around. At least that applies to this section!
Most of the route is closed to motorized traffic. In this way, the Ems, embedded in green meadows and forest strips, can be enjoyed …

September 21, 2023,Von Haren nach Papenburg – EmsRadweg

Today by train to Harem and back by bike to Papenburg. Weather was changeable. When we were ready to put on our rain gear, the rain was already over. We played the game twice. It was still very nice, always long along the Ems and seeing many locks.

That was the last stage of the Ems Cycle Route. In Papenburg we reached the end of the first part of the tour, which we had already started at the beginning of July 2023 (see stages 8 and 9).
What is particularly noteworthy about this stage is that it almost always runs directly along the Ems. The cathedral in Haren …

October 7, 2023,Emsradweg 6 Haren - Papenburg

This time a lot along the Ems and the Dortmund-Ems Canal, beautiful paths, well signposted. Very little car traffic. As before, according to the signs or the official GPX track.
Small diversions in the recording due to our inattention or purchases, a change in route due to construction work at the Volkspark Bokel just before Papenburg (the only diversion not …
