Highlight • Lake

The view of the Affolder See is beautiful. If you want to be a little faster on your bike, you have to brake regularly here so as not to run …

Cycle path along Lake Edersee

Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle path is very pleasant to ride and leads directly along the lake or, when the water level is low, along the “cliff”.

July 11, 2024,... Richtung Edersee 🚣🏼‍♂️⛵ Sperrmauer 💦🧱🌤️🌄😎
... quickly after an early evening meal, I got on my bike 😎 to make the most of the nice weather 🌤️. Down towards Altwildungen, on the beautiful, clean, smooth cycle path parallel to the country road via Giflitz, Mehlen, to Affoldern 👍🏼😎🚴🏼‍♂️💨. At the reservoir, I had a quick chat with some very nice passers-by, they gave me tips …

Unfortunately, I fell shortly before the end, saw the curb too late.
That happens when you look around the world instead of paying attention to the path.
Luckily, only grazes and bruised hands thanks to cycling gloves, although they are now ruined.
Anyway, it was still beautiful 👍

Today is Valentine's Day. Hmmm, whole year just thinking about me, so one day I have to be very nice to my darling. 😎😎
So bought flowers and made a tour to the Edersee and Bad Wildungen with my darling.
It was great, the sun was there, unfortunately at the dam and in the Rehbach everything was closed, no possibility …
