Down in the valley, signs indicate 17%, which may also be correct - selecting the right gear at the start makes it easier to get going and saves the material. The first third is steep, the rest drags on considerably - highly recommended

Börnchen is relatively small, but quite pretty. Besides the country inn, the village fountain and the milk ramp, there are also some very nice little houses and beautifully designed front gardens.

One of the most beautiful sections of the Stoneman Miriquidi Road: a quiet, flat stretch, hardly any traffic, and warm autumnal air. The alternating light and shade make the ride a pleasure—a section that simply stays with you.

A small but beautiful section on the Stoneman Miriquidi Road: The S216 between Kühnhaide and Rübenau is quiet, ideal for rolling and taking a breather.
