One of the nicest resting places at the Obernau. If you drive counterclockwise, you can recover from the small slope ;-)

Yes, there's something like that in Netphen 😊. Very nice idea 👍.
The starting point is the exercise park near N-Flow.


Unfortunately, the Netphen cycle route is one of the most unattractive routes I know 😕 - not because of the scenery, but because of the lack of a cycle path between Hainchen and the Hohenroth forester's lodge.

Since the ☀️ sometimes shines in the Siegerland too 😂, we went along the Obernau to the Forsthaus Hohenroth. Once a year, the Eisenstraße also goes, further to Lahnhof, down to Hainchen and via Deuz, then a detour to the wife with her Icelandic horse🐴 in Beienbach and back again. Today the asphalt was intentional 👍

2x Obernau Hoheroth up to 17% each 270 hm, with racing bike translation at my age quite okay, without much effort, on schedule, it will be, almost in top form!

Obernau Hoheroth for the first time, incline in third gear, quite okay, easy 800 meters in altitude, needs to be increased every week
