September 15, 2023,Auf dem Ederseebahn- Radweg + Pfannkuchenhaus
It must be possible to ride normal bicycles in this mountainous area! Searched for a long time and found: The Ederseebahn cycle path from Korbach to Buhlen. It has a total distance of 27 km. The route doesn't go all the way to Affoldern, the last part is not developed and then goes over the hills. With the e-bike, yes, …

Today my sweetheart invited me for ice cream at "Eis Eis Baby" on the Edersee.
We started our tour in Korbach. We cycled along the beautiful and, today, fairly empty "Ederbahnradweg" (Eder Railway Cycle Path).
The weather was beautiful 🌞 and we were in a great mood, but the headwind tried to spoil our good mood, but it didn't.

Today my favorite is “Cheating”.
Instead of the “Eierbahn” we drove to Korbach and then took the railway cycle path to Waldeck.
The weather cooperated, the route was pretty steep and the pancake house was open 😎😎.
Unfortunately Reiner and his community were ahead of us and the 40 cm curry sausage was sold out 🤣🤣😂😂.
Another wonderful day spent …

Many thanks to @Die Eumels for the inspiration. We were finally able to do this tour. A very relaxing tour that was simply fun. You really should do it at least once. 👍🏼☀️😎

Along the 40 km stretch of the old railway line there are 3 viaducts, 2 tunnels and several bridges and culverts, including the steel structure of the bridge over the Eder near Bergheim. From the Bad Wildungen - Wega junction to Korbach there is an altitude difference of around 170 meters.

Our tour started with a shock: After our Friday trip to Fürstenberg (30 km) we both forgot to charge our batteries. Well - I made the outward journey to Mehlen completely without an "e". With a few exceptions, it only went down. In Mehlen am See there were various delicious fish dishes / fun water games / unfortunately only from …

Along the Ederseebahn cycle path to Buhlen and on to the Edersee. A beautiful tour, off-road, with a relaxing ride along the old railway lines.
