This lovely little cycle route forms a short loop around Lake Hengstey. It starts at the Ruhr Bridge, crosses it, and then crosses the lake again at the Schiffswinkel Bridge. The route mostly takes you through wooded areas, always with a view of the lake. The Café See-Schlößchen is a lovely place to stop for a break and catch a glimpse of the Mäuseturm.
