Ahornweidstrasse Cycle Path Along Sihlsee

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Traffic-free and natural lakeshore along Sihlsee, definitely the better option than the normal road along. Beautiful views towards Euthal and the nature reserve on the lake. Geteert, which also makes use of many racing cyclists.
