Recommended seasons
From Bremberg, we cycle along the spa trail to Altastenberg. Attention: Here we share the path with the hiking spa guests! From Altastenberg it becomes much quieter and we cycle to the Großer Bildchen. Ride slowly for the last 100 m before the Großer Bildchen, as it is very steep! Trekking cyclists please dismount. The route now descends through the Nordenau forest to Nordenau and continues over a ridge to the lowest point of our tour to Westfeld, where we recommend taking a break. From now on, the route climbs uphill, initially at a leisurely pace along the Lenne, later a little harder on the Hoher Knochen. On the Sahnehang of the Kahler Asten, we reach the Kurweg again, which leads us back to Winterberg.
