The ride
Roll out of Mayen and let the route unfold: first past Genovevaburg castle, then on through the Hochsimmer, In der Burwies, Lehrenkopf and Dachsbusch nature reserves. The 86.8 km loop climbs 1518 m, with the Lydia-Turm viewpoint waiting along the way. Almost all of it is paved, so the wheels keep turning from start to finish back in Mayen.
