Here, an asphalted path takes you right next to the Rose, a tributary of the Brachtpe. You are surrounded by wonderful nature and a beautiful landscape.

With 9 like-minded people we went early in the morning by bike over the railway line to the Biggesee for breakfast. Seats were reserved in advance, so we enjoyed it on the lakeside terrace. After almost 50 km we were back at the vehicles. It was fun, the breakfast delicious, and everything should be repeated

Today is our pre-tour for the big bike tour on Sunday. We set off early in the morning, and the weather – as forecast – is at its best: pleasantly cool, but dry and pleasant.

We start off leisurely on the Aggertal Avenue Cycle Path, which seems almost magical at this time of day. Due to the early light and …

The 🚲 tour led in good weather 🌞 from Vollmerhausen-Gummersbach to Olpe-Biggesee. It goes over railway lines and cycle paths, over well-developed asphalt paths with good trees and lots of shade, through nature with a wonderful view and through a tunnel. There is always the opportunity for a break 🍻☕️🍰 e.g. at …

After the steep climb at the beginning of the tour, you will be rewarded with a unique view. This is followed by a relaxed tour away from the traffic routes. The further way to Olpe is good and easy to manage. The return trip from Olpe to Bergneustadt is always downhill via the former train journey.
