Bierfelder Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The track removal began on the route in March 2000 and today cyclists travel along it. The Bierfeld Tunnel is 260 meters long and: it is illuminated! Nothing stands in the way of cycling fun.

View of Nonnweiler Reservoir and its lakeside bistro

Highlight • Lake

After the steep climb from Nonnweiler to the reservoir, the bistro is in the right place. You can enjoy the view and enjoy drinks and food right at the reservoir. The operator is super nice and often rides his bike.
