Illingen has a really beautiful town center, where hungry cyclists will also get their money's worth. There are good cafes and even an Bioland bakery 😋🥐☘️.

Maurersee

Highlight • Lake

The Mauerersee is the lowest of the three Illinger Klostersee lakes. It's not a natural lake, but rather a man-made one. The dam provides a good vantage point for photography.

Metter Valley in Naturpark Stromberg-Heuchelberg

Highlight • Natural

The cycle path (Schützingen-Gündelbach) leads a little away from the Metter through the valley. Partly paved or fine gravel. In spring, when the meadows turn green, a great sight.

Today we went with the hobby cyclists to the night watchman in Lienzingen. Finishing at the Schützenhaus Tamm.

Easy to ride paths, lots of asphalt

What could be better than cycling through our region in this glorious weather...?

I quickly planned my route for today early in the morning and included a few paths I hadn't ridden before, starting in Schützingen. It was lovely and not too busy!

March 18, 2023,🇩🇪🚴 Hört, ihr Leut, und lasst euch sagen - Lienzingen

The small town of Lienzingen with its medieval town center around the fortified church is always worth a visit. Above all, the Cafe Kirchenburg (Warning! Only limited opening hours. Get smart on the internet) and the Gasthof Nachtwächter with its beautiful beer garden (also limited opening hours due to a lack of staff) are worth having!

With this great weather you just have to get out 😁. I didn't really have a destination, I just set off 😊🌞☀️ Today it felt like there were thousands of walkers out and about. The dirt roads were pretty muddy in places after yesterday, but mostly everything was OK to ride on. It was great.☀️🚴😁
