Roll out of Liebenau and the ride soon leaves pavement behind: 61.1 km with 52% unpaved. First comes the Eickhofer Heide forest, then the Wellier Schleife nature reserve at the Staustufe Landesbergen. On through the Domäne Stolzenau/Leese nature reserve and the Weseraue wetlands, before the road turns back to Liebenau.
