Beautifully flowing, slightly wavy and mostly in the shade. So nice to bike even in the heat!

Köppel Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ascent is definitely worthwhile in good weather. The view after climbing the tower is indescribable. In addition, a nice descent awaits mountain bikers, such as the continuation to the alarm pole.

Is worth a trip. :-)

Today again through the beautiful Westerwald. 😀
In order to have time to go up the observation tower on the Köppel, this tour was a little shorter than yesterday.
It was still beautiful though.
The stretch along the Gelbach in particular is really enjoyable.
Mostly slightly downhill on good gravel roads.
