Road Bike - Diemelsee Loop

After starting at the visitor center in Willingen, the route initially leads us to Usseln, where at the town's exit at about 600 m altitude a 4 km descent awaits us to the junction to Eimelrod. 
Arriving in the village center of Deisfeld, a 7 km descent follows to Benkhausen and Adorf.
In two "waves" we ride over Sudeck and Rhenegge back towards Upland. Before that, we reach the Diemelsee at Heringhausen and circle it. Several local venues around the lake invite you for a short rest.
On both sides of the road, the foothills of the Hochsauerland rise up.
The destination lies at the foot of the Ettelsberg massif with the Hochheideturm towering above. After a refreshing shower in the Lagunenbad and a cozy round with a cappuccino in one of the numerous cafes, we can prepare ourselves for the road bike rides of the following days.
The route offers longer downhill rolling sections and connects them with two shorter “tough” ascents.
