Rheine, Ems valley and avenue

35 kilometres through the Ems valley from Rheine — across three bridges, an avenue, with cafés and ice cream parlours along the way.

The route

You start in Rheine. You cross the Ems, the Elter-Mühlenbach and the Frischhofsbach, rolling almost continuously on asphalt and passing an avenue. The route is flat — 109 metres of climbing over 35 kilometres. Along the way you'll find two churches, several monuments like the Kreiselmeise and the Jewish Synagogue. If you fancy a break, you'll find cafés like Wintering or Zucker und Salz as well as several ice cream parlours.
