The bike path is very nice to ride, but be careful: in places it goes very steeply downhill next to the bike path.

It was a combination tour, first by boat from Hemfurth-Edersee to Herzhausen and then by bike back along the lake. First the route went straight along the country road, then from Asel-Süd through the forest, with the lake always in view. Thanks to the e-bike, the elevation was not a big hurdle for someone who only knows flat land.

The tour was a lot of fun, only suitable for experienced bikers, some narrow passages and also quite steep in some places, so be careful, but for us it was brilliant👌😊
