Loop
This short but lovely bike ride takes a small 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 winds through wooded areas, always with a view of the lake. The Cafe See-Schlößchen is a great place to stop for a break and catch a glimpse of the Mäuseturm.
