Short route but super beautiful. No traffic, no noise, just beautiful views of the Siebengebirge and the edge of the Eifel. It's wonderful to cycle through the blossoming apple orchards.

We then drove all of the 6 routes on this loop. I particularly liked this one, as most of the route went through apple and fruit plantations. The views in all directions were great, the moated castles were worth seeing.
