Description by the author

You start at Neuss main station and head straight for the Neuss Alpine Park, where you can take a short break with a cool drink in the beer garden. After crossing Selikumer Park, which houses a tree museum, and the Erft, the Norfbach accompanies you for a little while. After a long stretch of bustling Neuss, the Zonser Grind, a nature reserve on a peninsula on the Rhine, and the Dormagen Tannenbusch will let you take a deep breath. From Knechtsteden Monastery, the route leads towards Cologne, and you get to know the cathedral city from its green side: Past the MediaPark, you cycle through the Outer and Inner Green Belt, to the Lindenthal canals, the Stadtgarten and the Decksteiner Weiher through the Rheinauhafen to Cologne Cathedral.
