13.5.10 Rennsteig: Blankenstein to Neuhaus

Rennsteig The bike path is already almost like a tradition! After all, we take it now the second time! The efforts of the last year may not have been so bad. This time we are better prepared: Besides shoe pads, waterproof pants and jackets completed a rain poncho our luggage.

start after incredible hardships of arrival (6 hours by train from Cologne to Rennsteig) is, as always, the blouses seamstresses station in Blankenstein.

lonely hours in IC5312 ...

200 seamstresses can still n err ... maybe


starting lineup of the team. They still do not know what will happen to them ...

We loose and relaxed approach of the first sausage Station (after 15 kilometers). At some point we will understand why we do not feel the effort: the temperatures! There are gerademal 7 °. This can occur with such a weather no sweat is clear. But we do not complain, finally, it could have been snowing can.

Well maintained trails invite you to cruise along the Rennsteig.

The temperature has the consequence that this year much less alcohol corpses lying around in the woods. Only from men's groups and to cross the road, most agree to joyous chants when we drive past them. In Thuringia is a Father's Day Men's Day, that all human males give themselves no later than reaching puberty once a year to Ascension a collective crash out.

middle of the forest we find a sign with a phone number on it. Here, the media and interested networked hiker or biker-date information from the History Channel to retrieve stones by the roadside. Who wants to try it: know now without a leader the Rennsteig: +49.911.810.9400.45.44

The technique makes it possible!

In Franken (yes, leads the Rennsteig by Bavaria!), We take this opportunity to strengthen ourselves with a tasty beer for the last big climb before Neuhaus.

The Thuringian is a general purpose weapon!

The Thuringian origin cattle had to freeze not the only one!

Fortunately, the accommodation a sauna, so we can at least warm up a bit!

Who does not believe: the proof!

9.5.10 Ruhr Valley Cycle Route - Section 4: Arnsberg - 8.5.10


Part 2: The Sauerland
Stage 4: Arnsberg up sword
(total 58.25 km, journey time approx 3 hours)

After a very quiet night in the Country Lodge, it was the first time sharply downhill:))) then pass again on the picturesque Old town of Arnsberg ever Ruhrauen the way! The stage is then slowly finally flat. Time and again it goes through a long forest areas.

The Ruhr in Arnberg ... A dream!

On Chain Forging Museum in Fröndenberg it was relatively fast, the first stage of the sausage! The last 20 kilometers it is then always the Ruhrauen along! Once in sword we are back on familiar territory: our starting point of the Ruhr Valley Cycle Route.

middle of the province then something like that! Headquarters Dehler Yachts !

CONCLUSION:
We can not say exactly which part of the Ruhr Valley cycle route was beautiful. The Sub-region has undertaken in each case, more surprising part of the Sauerland, of course unbeatable as regards peace and nature! All in all, this tour is nice for short weekend trips, as many of the sections are easily accessible by train. In addition, it is because of the perfect signs, rather quickly. A cycle map is not really necessary. Even after stage 3 and 4 we can say: The Ruhr Valley Cycle Route was rightly chosen as the most beautiful bike path NRW !

Schwerte Ruhr Valley Cycle Route - Section 3: Winterberg - Arnsberg


Part 2: The Sauerland
Section 3: Winter mountain to Arnsberg
(total 74.5 km, journey time about 4.5 hours)

Since we had very positive surprise of the Ruhr Valley Cycle Route , we naturally wanted the missing piece of the Sauerland not miss! And off we went: Used in the planning stage, the direction of the route: Start in any case in the Ruhr source in winter mountain and then to the mouth of the Ruhr, ie cycling west. Everything else rises, sweat and thick calves.

as Sunday drivers were to stop it of course, and are therefore started in Winterberg! But the cycling guide had tricked us, without a pitch is not in the Sauerland! Well, one could have imagined.

The clock source! Where does the water from the earth eigtl ?!?!? Source ridiculous ...

So back to the clock source, clock springs from an unspectacular rock to 674 m in Rothaargebirge. Passing many beautiful rustic cabins and ski lifts (mei, much like in the Alps, but only almost, believe it lacks the mountains ;-)) it was endless forest roads along.

Only a few parked just behind the clock source and Russian MIG-21 combat helicopter disturbing the peace. Why are because we did not become clear.

What was the name of, has not been opened up to us today. Perhaps the training?

From low field we went over to Assinghausen Olsberg. Then after Bestwig and Ostwig. And from there on Meschede, Wennemen, Freienohl Wildshausen, Glösingen, Oeventrop and Rumbeck to Arnsberg! So, and as my list goes now suspect already: Spectacular Highlights are not reported. BUT: calm and pure nature can indeed sometimes be very relaxing!

Route and Signage: The route
was still marked as a picture book! Due to some little hill you should still bring some breath.

Hotel Recommendation: Recommend
We highly recommend, the Country Lodge in Arnsberg! Not end of the seemingly never-ending increase put off, the prospect of compensation for some! The privately-run hotel consists of a handful of log cabins, all decorated with love. Not to mention the delicious restaurant in the area! Here's the URL:
