Westfalen Colliery

Highlight • Historical Site

Great ensemble of industrial culture. The gastronomy located in the area of the former mine is strongly seasonal and event-related. Current information, especially about opening times, can be found at: eventa-zeche-westfalen.de.

Impressive monument, which reminds of the mining of the former black gold in Ahlen. Adventurous guided tours for big and small "buddies" are also offered here. Registration is required.

The cycle path on the old railway line provides a very nice connection between the Datteln-Hamm Canal and the Werse cycle path in a quiet environment.

A very good bike path. Leisurely or fast, the cycle path here belongs firmly in a tour. There are small rest areas along the route.

Pond in Kurpark Hamm

Highlight • Lake

The Hamm spa park is a real place to chill out.
It offers several corners where you can find peace and quiet even when there is a lot going on.

Finally the weekend - finally a little more time to ride the bike than just "short walks with the dog". It couldn't be nicer at this time of year - maybe even a little too nice? I'm enjoying it anyway.

My bottom just needs a little time to get used to it🫣 😂

And I thought I could avoid the rain. Knowing full well that there was more to come—the rain radar clearly showed it—I was planning on going for a short ride in the afternoon. Rain from above, so I could take shelter there 👍🏻 Lucky me🤩 I couldn't avoid getting dirt up to my neck.

Our travel companion was craving ice cream, and since she had stitches removed from her foot today, an ice cream treat was a must. From ice cream, we went to Werries Castle, where we had coffee and plum cake as a starter.

The temperatures were still warm enough for sitting outside today; who knows when that will be possible again.
