Road between Grassel and Essenrode

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful road between Grassel and Essenrode where you are on a good surface. It goes through the forest and along the fields (always nice when the rape blossoms). The traffic is limited and it's great to drive.

Newly Paved Road to Glentorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The section shortly after the A2 was resurfaced to Glentorf in July 2024. A dream in black with two shoulders that takes us undulating to Glentorf.

Completely paved in good condition with some hedges and trees to protect against the wind. Really nice route. Extension to Groß Brunsrode or Hondelage as an option.

Road between Hondelage and Wendhausen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Since September 14, 2024, the entire route has been covered with gravel. You can drive on it, but the asphalted dirt road between Dibbesdorf and Wendhausen is the better alternative.
