A wonderful route between Wies and Halblech near Küchele. Mostly well-paved (only a short gravel section) through a varied landscape.

A wonderful, well-paved road between Wies and Küchele. The title is unfortunately misleading; it's a great place to ride a road bike. It's beautifully undulating and consistently well-paved.
