Roll out of Parsberg and let the ride unfold: first past Burg Parsberg castle, then along the Schwarze Laber river and through Deusmauer Moor nature reserve. Onward you climb, with 1142 m of elevation gain across the route, before Burgruine Velburg and Schloss Traidendorf castles appear. The Vils and Naab rivers guide you past Burgruine Kallmünz castle and back to Parsberg. With 86.9 km ahead, mostly on paved surface, the castles and rivers keep the legs turning.
