The ride
Roll out of Hirschfeld and let the ride unfold: first past Schloss Heuckewalde, then through the Naturschutzgebiet Rödel, before the Burgruine Kempe appears and the Weiße Elster joins the route. Of the 58.8 km, most runs unpaved, and 690 m of climbing keeps the legs honest. It all loops back to Hirschfeld.
