Information for cyclists
Bocholt's location alone makes it a wonderful destination for cyclists. Small rivers such as the Issel or Bocholter Aa meander through the landscape and are surrounded by beautiful nature. Along the Bocholter Aa, a 58-kilometre cycle path leads from Velen via Rhede and Bocholt to Isselburg to great sights and through beautiful countryside. Imposing castles in Isselburg and Raesfeld are within easy reach and the Rhine and the Dutch neighbours are also not far away. The possibilities are manifold.
Various themed cycle routes offer interesting cycling tours through the Münsterland. The signposted themed cycle routes each show very special contents of the region and thus tell exciting stories about Münsterland. Bocholt is also connected to various themed cycle routes.
