Road between Hondelage and Wendhausen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Since September 14, 2024, the entire route has been covered with gravel. You can drive on it, but the asphalted dirt road between Dibbesdorf and Wendhausen is the better alternative.

Paved cycle path between Lehre and Wendhausen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Completely paved in good condition with some hedges and trees to protect against the wind. Really nice route. Extension to Groß Brunsrode or Hondelage as an option.

Newly Paved Road to Glentorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The section shortly after the A2 was resurfaced to Glentorf in July 2024. A dream in black with two shoulders that takes us undulating to Glentorf.

View of the Elm-Lappwald Countryside

Highlight • Viewpoint

The southern approach to the Rieseberg is a bit easier. Super asphalt, the gradient is between 2-5% and in the forest about 7% and the increase is 1750m long and 45m in altitude.

The best route to avoid the bike path on Berliner Strasse and to be on good asphalt without traffic.

October 7, 2024,Saisonabschluß für Schmal für 2024

Today is probably my last round for 2024 in "Schmal" on site. In November I'll bring the summer back again, with plenty of sun and everything in "shorts". At just under 18° I'm already riding with a transition jersey and leg warmers; I'm a wimp. Today again over the Rieseberg, which already stands out with this elevation profile. Back again …

Exit from 6/28/22, dry, 23°

This time, the route of 57 kilometers leads from the south to the Rieseberg. The course of the route is mainly on side roads without central markings and approx. 7.5 kilometers on paved dirt roads. I drove the route from Glentorf through the forest near Rieseberg for the first time. Very nice route through the …

June 5, 2024,Einmal Rieseberg mit Niesel

I actually wanted to ride north yesterday because the weather was more consistent, but I decided to take the motorbike and head to Elm and Asse. Today I preferred a shorter ride to Rieseberg and according to the weather app there was actually 0% chance of rain, but from kilometer 35 onwards it was nice and drizzly to Lehre and …

May 20, 2025,Einmal zum Rieseberg

Today I started a longer "short" ride to Rieseberg. On my ride, the elevation profile clearly shows the small hill. Unfortunately, I was a bit unlucky with the wind, as it changed direction on the way back; so it felt like a headwind. I rode this route 10 days ago, but the section from Scheppau to Lauingen was closed, so …

May 2, 2026,Erstmal in "Kurz" und Rieseberg gemieden

Actually, I wanted to include Rieseberg and Abbenrode, but my neck gave me problems and I could hardly look forward. I'll probably have to switch to a Dutch bike soon. The wind at the beginning came from the southwest, so it was only a side wind, and on the way back, a full headwind from the west. There were many …

September 2, 2025,Auf Nebenstrassen am Rieseberg vorbei

Today I rode my Rieseberg Loop clockwise, without crossing the route. The loop is a great route, as it mostly follows secondary roads, some of which lack road markings. The asphalt is top-notch everywhere, and the section between Beienrode and Glentorf and on to the A2 is a dream in black with two white stripes. The wind was coming from …

August 6, 2024,Traum in Schwarz mit zwei weißen Streifen

Two days ago, after my Elm round trip, I drove through Glentorf again on my motorbike to see if the road was clear again between Glentorf and Beienrode. The route is a dream and the section after crossing the A2 to Glentorf is also new. The pictures were taken on my motorbike round trip and are a "dream in black …
