The tour starts either at Meinerzhagen train station or at the Schützenplatz parking lot (KNP 33). After a short crossing of the town area, you reach Willertshagen, the gateway to the Ebbegebirge.

On well-maintained forest paths, you climb around 200 meters in altitude and reach the Ebbekamm with its beautiful views. From here, you cycle around 12 km along the mountain ridges. With a detour to Nordhelle, you reach the summit of the tour. After a rapid descent and short climbs, there are opportunities to stop for refreshments in Valbert.

Now it's just a few kilometers through the Sauerland Rothaargebirge Nature Park back to the starting point.

Due to the differences in altitude to be overcome, this tour is reserved for sporty, active people or those riding a pedelec. The tour is not aimed at sporty mountain bikers or racing cyclists.
