Wied Valley

Highlight • River

Nice, quiet route along the Wied, either with a racing bike on the road, as a MTB or gravel cyclist on the embankment or on the Wieswanderweg.

The Wiedradweg is really beautiful! Not boring, but partly on forest paths, gravel paths, and roads. The Wied always more or less in view, bridges, tunnels, recommended!

Peterslahr Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The 156 meter long Peterslahr tunnel on the former railway line of the Wiedtalbahn, which led from Linz to Altenkirchen, is illuminated and can therefore be accessed without an additional flashlight.

Neustadt Railway Embankment Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Former embankment from Neustädter Berschau to Mettelshahner Schweiz. Very nice to ride with a bike or stroller or to walk.

If you keep to the right when visiting the castle, you can crawl through a small opening and climb the castle. I find it very interesting that the rear tower has a proper platform at the top.
