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.

The Ems Cycle Path is a HL in itself, no matter where you ride.

You can only judge it if you've ridden the entire route 😎 and not just know bits and pieces of it.

August 10, 2021,An der Ems zwischen Haren und Meppen
Those who like to cycle on the river will find plenty of variety in this area. From paved expressways to sandy slopes and short forest paths, everything is available. On my tour there were 3 heavy rain showers. Meppen is nicely dressed up, Haren is rather boring. The overall mix of the tour deserves a good rating.

Today we were in good spirits and off we went happily .... until after about 40 km and at full speed a flat tire braked us. 😞Unfortunately not only the hose but also the coat was ripped away. The whole search for material and the repair took so long that we went by train again. We'll try again tomorrow... for …

A beautiful autumn tour along the Ems from Meppen to Haren and back. In Meppen there was the annual town hall fair and in Haren the Holland market. And in between there is a beautiful cycle path. It doesn't matter whether you ride on the left or right side, both sides have their charm.

We didn't know exactly where to go today - final trip 😁.
Take a quick look at Komoot. Old Ems Tour found and left. The course of the route was not unknown, apart from the loops on the left bank of the Ems. Past the old Ems bridge and the old arm with settled beavers. Here you can definitely stay …
