Picturesque river cycle paths, perfectly prepared railway tracks and exciting theme routes that lead you through lush meadows, shady forests, idyllic river and lake landscapes, over panoramic mountains and through picturesque valleys - the Sauerland is a really good place for cyclists. In this collection, we present seven major tours that are particularly suitable for enjoyable stage rides. With countless highlights, varied gastronomy and cyclist-friendly hosts along the routes, the Sauerland is ready to welcome you and your bike.
The tours in this collection are all relatively long, and only a few ambitious cyclists will take up the routes in one go. But that's not even necessary. It is much more enjoyable if you let the beautiful nature and the numerous highlights of the Sauerland have an effect on you in peace. Thanks to its good tourist infrastructure, you can decide for yourself how far you want to go and where you want to get on the tours. Many hosts have specially adapted to the needs of cyclists, so you won't lack anything on the way: You can park your bike safely, dry your clothes in bad weather, repair your bike directly in the accommodation or recharge the battery of your e-bike.
If you want to do a lot of cycling to enjoy the beautiful nature extensively and perseveringly, then do it this way. If, on the other hand, you would rather get to know the culture and history of the Sauerland, the numerous highlights along the routes offer you all kinds of possibilities. So that you can put together your personal, perfect cycling experience, each of the tours presented has its own website. There you can find out everything about the condition of the route, about highlights and hosts along the route: sauerland.com/erleben/Radfahren/Tourenrad-und-Genussradeln.
