Warm up before the first hairpin bends to Oberhundem. Shortly before the Rhein-Weser-Turm, we turn right towards the Panorama Park. After a few undulating kilometers, we "free fall" down the descent to Heinsberg. Despite the fantastic views, we have to keep our concentration. The ascent to Helberhausen in Siegerland should not be underestimated. Real climbing skills are required there. On the way back to the Sauerland, the ascent is comparatively steady, but longer. You can relax again from Brachthausen, as the long descent back to Kirchhundem follows.
