Are you ready for a gravel bike tour full of contrasts? Then grab your bike and immerse yourself in a route that combines industrial history, untouched nature and medieval flair: the west of the route impresses with imposing industrial relics, above all the Weisweiler power plant. A real contrast awaits just a few kilometers further on: you are suddenly surrounded by silence, accompanied only by the crunching of your tires on the gravel. Dense forests and vast landscapes alternate - perfect terrain for gravel bikers! On the Black Mountain, you are in the middle of the past - old mining monuments tell of hard work underground. Then it's on to Stolberg: the picturesque old town with its cobbled streets, Stolberg Castle and the impressive church of St. Lucia is a sight to behold. The view from Donnerberg is breathtaking, while rusty tank wrecks whisper mysterious stories in the Brander Wald forest and the route remains mostly flat, but a few crisp climbs will challenge your legs and keep you on your toes. So, what are you waiting for? Pack your bags, get on your bike and experience this unique tour for yourself!

Highlights along the route:

• Historic town center of Stolberg
