The tour can also be easily completed on a regular bike. You'll have to ride on some roads until Affoldern! If the tour is too short for you, you can easily return the same way.

The Korbach-Affoldern railway line was built primarily to transport construction materials for the dam. The longest section has now been converted into a cycle and hiking path.
