What a beautiful day! The weather was with us. In beautiful sunshine and summery temperatures, we set off on the Erbeskopf long-distance route on 31/08/2014. The route was split between the short and long distance at Reinsfeld. Nobody wanted to miss the challenge of tackling the long distance, so we all rode the long distance and harmonised very well.

Before we reached the Erbeskopf (816 metres above sea level), the highest point in Germany to the left of the Rhine, we stopped off at the Erbeskopf National Park Gate Café. Fortified with coke and cake, we set off on the second half of the route. On this tour, we cycled along fantastic gravel tracks on the Erbeskopf and in the Hochwald forest. You have to ride this route once.

We ended the evening with a cosy get-together on the terrace of the Bella I’Talia restaurant in Ruwer.
