Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful gently sloping road through the birch valley between Kipfenberg and Krut. Relatively little traffic and therefore easy to drive without a cycle path. A pleasant way to drive up the Altmühltahlrand.

Unfortunately, I only noticed at Kratzmühlsee that the Wahoo wasn't recording.

Great event and mostly a nice route, but I wouldn't choose the Blumenberg near Eichstätt myself.
