56.5miLength
5,301ftElevation gain
Point to point
Picturesque route through the Palatinate Forest with a detour to France. Beautiful cities like Wissembourg along the route that can be driven in both directions. It can get quite windy on the Rhine plateau (pay attention to the wind forecast!). Trains run every hour between Pirmasens and Karlsruhe, so you can easily get back to the starting point by bike. Since you pass many cities with train stations, the route can also be shortened individually. There are refreshment stops and nice resting places.
