EmsRadweg - Von der Senne bis zur Nordsee

From the Senne on the edge of the Teutoburg Forest, the Ems Cycle Path winds its way to the North Sea. Along the way, it passes romantic forests that stretch along the banks of the Ems, pristine nature reserves with picturesque lakes, wide fields and pastures that stretch to the horizon and the lush green Ems floodplains that line the river for so many kilometers.

The approximately 385-kilometer EmsRadweg starts in Hövelhof at the Ems Info Center in the Senne and initially winds its way through the Paderborn region and the district of Gütersloh. The cycle path continues through Münsterland and Emsland to Emden in East Frisia, where the Ems flows into the North Sea. Along the way, you will experience the fascinating nature and beautiful landscape through which the river flows. Every now and then, the natural idyll is replaced by charming little towns with pretty half-timbered houses or romantic harbors.

At just under 370 km long, the Ems is the shortest river in Germany.
