Mountain Biking Highlight (Segment)
Recommended by 68 out of 69 mountain bikers
Location: Westerstede, Ammerland, Lower Saxony, Germany
The path leads you at the beginning along a Baumschaule, continue through forest and corridor and towards the end past the "tower of a Rhodo queen". The latter building is one of five so-called landscape windows in Ammerland and a trip here is worthwhile, especially during the main flowering period of the Rhododendron (late April - early June).

Great route at the exit from Westerstede. Very suitable for gravel bikes. But you won't find a demanding mountain bike trail. But a nice way through nature.
And you pass the "Tower of a Rhodo Queen", where you can take a good break (komoot.de/highlight/5434857).
