Tiefenbachtal Gravel Route

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

First a light descent over a good Schotterstrasse into the Tiefenbachtal. Then a somewhat narrower and more technical passage (at least in wet weather) along the Tiefenbach. Then a steep finale towards Kesternich over a wider gravel path.

Weidebachtal Gravel Route

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Upper part is a more technical and rough path (quite slippery in autumn with the gravel bike), lower part is better quality Schotterstrasse.
