This route is predominantly gravel, those who do not want to ride their road bike on it can switch to the main road (however, it is heavily frequented by cars). This gravel section is easily passable and worthwhile.

Those who have time and inclination can visit the castle. There is an opportunity to stop for refreshments and the old town of Burgdorf is also worth seeing.
