Forest Path Along the Border in Naturpark Schwalm-Nette

Highlight • Trail

Very nice path on both sides of the border. Downhill there is a bit of a rattle when driving, but if you don't ride a racing bike, you can cope with this route quite well.

A beautiful bike ride on the German-Dutch border. Very nice along the national park "De Meinweg". Here the tour also led through great heathland.
