Möhnesee
There is a lot to discover on the tour: in addition to attractive places, the Möhnetal presents itself from its most beautiful side. Floodplain landscapes with lush meadows, green forests and gentle hills characterize the scenery during the tour.
And the Möhnetal is undergoing a transformation: parts of the floodplain have been renaturalized as part of the "Möhne Life" project. Flowery valley meadows and light alluvial forests are being restored for many animal and plant species of the low mountain valleys and offer cyclists an even greater experience of nature.
On the second half of the tour, the trail leads along the edge of the Möhnesee and finally ends at the imposing dam wall, which is over 100 years old and is still the heaviest monument in North Rhine-Westphalia. From there, there is a great view over the Möhnesee dam.
Large parts of the MöhnetalRadweg run along a former railroad line with absolutely no inclines.
There are many opportunities to discover the Möhnesee and the attractive surroundings with children along the way.
