- Moderate·46.1 mi·Est. 19.5–21 hrPicturesque cycle tour through the Vulkaneifel near Mayen in Rhineland-Palatinate. This scenic cycle tour leads through the hilly landscapes so typical of the Vulkaneifel. The route runs mostly on low-traffic, narrow roads across meadows and fields, with many good views of the region. Every now and then you pass smaller towns with local, cultural and historical sights. Highlights: - Beautiful views - Local flora and fauna - Varied natural landscapes -- Refreshments
- Moderate·29.1 mi·Est. 12.5–14 hrThe short route of the Mayener RTF gives a good impression of the hilly landscape around Mayen, because it leads to the high altitude around Laubach and then largely flat through the Elz valley back to the destination. Nevertheless, quite a few meters in altitude have to be overcome for this distance. On the way there is a misplacement control in Hauroth, with the climbs at the Kehriger mill and finally behind the idyllic village of Monreal, two real tests of strength await the drivers.
