🚲✨ The section of the cycle path between Darfeld and Laer is one of the most beautiful stretches of the entire route and offers you pure cycling pleasure on the best asphalt. As you roll east from Rosendahl, the path leads you through the wide, open park landscape, which is particularly captivating here with its tranquility and the gentle transitions between fields and small wooded areas.
