Rondje Bornbachtal en Stederau

The ride

Roll out of Stederdorf and let the ride unfold along the Stederau river, then into the Bornbachtal nature reserve. The Gerdau and Hardau rivers follow, each one pulling you further along the loop before it brings you back to where you started. With 83% of the 60.4 km unpaved, most of the day runs off the tarmac, and 281 m of climbing keeps things rolling. It's a route that simply strings the water and the green together.
