Very well developed bike paths, signs for normal cyclists could be even better 🚵

After a full day of theoretical lessons on cardiac emergencies, there was only one option left; Head out and feet on. Once again we realized what a beautiful region we have. 😊

Today I redeemed my Father's Day gift 🎁 and picked up my father for a bike ride 🚲.
It was once about the Eibenstock dam with many small breaks, because my father is not the youngest anymore either 🤷 ♂️ but I don't mind. I was also able to show him some new corners today 👉 that he didn't know …

Very nice round around the Eibenstock dam. There are many beautiful views here, even reminiscent of lakes in Sweden or fjords in Norway. There are also plenty of places to rest.

Eibenstock Dam – 30km Loop.

A beautiful circular tour with a varied route consisting of asphalt and well-maintained forest paths. The route leads along the dam and through the wooded surroundings with great views.
Strenuous, but worthwhile – the trail is well-maintained and offers pure nature. A definite recommendation!
