From the south bank of Lake Baldeney you have a beautiful view of Villa Hügel on the north bank and the sailing boats on the lake. The paths are very wide, but it can get quite crowded on the weekend.

Hey guys, my first longer tour this year. Was cool but dry. Not much traffic either. I did some exercises at the trim stations. At Baldenysee I could drive really relaxed, without slalom, brakes etc..
Stay healthy until then

Bicycle Tour - meeting with Hikmet and smiling 😊 - Baldeneysee, Kettwig eating ice cream and panoramic cycle path to Emotion 🤬 setting up my rubber ducky (bike)...it was nice and relaxed...with a smile everything goes better even in the heat 😊

The starting point was the 125m high cemetery car park on Höseler Weg in Kettwig, which was quite adventurous to reach by car and bike via a very narrow and very steep path. I would not choose this parking lot anymore, because at the end of the tour you still have to conquer this incline.

Well, I always wanted to go back through the Oefter Bachtal. I did it this time. But there was a brutal long climb. That was awesome after about 30 km in the legs. Then I stood somewhere in the forest and returned to Oefter Burg or Schloß via Werden.

The round is beautiful over large parts 👌 the detours to Kettwig and Krupp Villa Hügel are absolutely recommendable, admission to the Villa Hügel premises is 5 euros per person including a visit to the exhibition 👍 the tour gets a small point deduction because after the Deilbachtal to Velbert runs on the road. Have fun cycling 😉

The tour had to be today in the beer garden weather. And so there were two EKS on this beautiful tour through the southern Ruhr area😊👍😊👍
