Kemnader See Weir

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice cycle path around the Kemnader Lake, asphalted and partly with three separate paths for pedestrians, skaters and cyclists. Good starting point for a ride along the Ruhr Valley …

Kemnader Lake – Bochum Side

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

I prefer the Bochum side of Lake Kemander with a racing bike, as the paths are better than on the southern, Witten side.

The viaduct was extensively restored and is part of the Elbschetal cycle path. The view from up there on Wetter / Wengern is really nice.
