After a good year of construction, the cycle path between Bo - Gerthe
(industrial area) and C.R. Bövinghausen was finally opened.
The path was created on the old Lothringen railway line. The section
is only 1050 meters long but saves you having to cycle on the Bövinghauser Hellwig.

Finally, there is a small but nice alternative for the sidewalk-less area of the Bövinghauser Hellweg: Behind the water towers, the asphalted cycle path called "Lothringen II" runs as a continuation of the Lothringen route. The direct connection between BO-Gerthe and CAS-Merklinde or DO-Bövinghausen is significantly improved by this route in terms of safety for pedestrians and cyclists.Tip: If you continue your tour eastwards along Bövinghauser Straße, you will pass the "Regiomat", which has fresh agricultural products on offer. The next classic kiosk is a little further east on the corner of Gerther Straße and Landwehr.
