There was a nice bike path around the Edersee, only the dirt road to Fürstenberg was washed out by the rain.

We're still here. Since the tours of the last few days were quite time-consuming (it's already Wednesday) and our day still only has 24 hours...
Today, via the Atlantis traffic junction and the bumpy Eder Cycle Path (E/E5/E6), we first went to the squirrel trail on the treetop path near Rehbach. Both paths are very well designed as a unified …

August 4, 2023,Von Ederseestaumauer nach Blick auf Schloss Waldeck und Waldeck West

The tour was great, but we also drove sections through the forest where a little experience is needed. Very rough rock and a lot of ups and downs. We had a lot of fun and the views are awesome.

August 10, 2024,Edersee – Ederseestaumauer Runde von Vöhl-Herzhausen

The tour was a lot of fun, only suitable for experienced bikers, some narrow passages and also quite steep in some places, so be careful, but for us it was brilliant👌😊

April 23, 2022,Ederseerunde mit Kahlehaardt

The well-known Edersee circuit a bit different: via the Kahlehardtweg is a great alternative to Basdorf, even if only for reasonably safe drivers. If you rush down there to the left: good night. So nothing for small children...
