Bike route Over the Villages - Around Burbach

The route through the Burbach villages starts at the Burbach town hall on Eicher Weg. After preparing your bicycle, cycle through the harmoniously designed village center towards Würgendorf. From the mighty "Römer," the Evangelical Church of Burbach towers, which is worth visiting. Through Nassauische Straße and with a short detour via Jägerstraße, turn left into Gassenweg. On the right, you see the "Alte Vogtei," where changing exhibitions of regional and supraregional artists can be admired. The "Alte Vogtei" is around 500 years old and one of the most impressive half-timbered buildings in Siegerland.

Now continue to Würgendorf. Gently ascending, follow the route through Hellerauen. The quiet babbling of the Heller accompanies you along the way. In Würgendorf, a detour into the village center to the defensive church and the Heimhof Theater Burbach is worthwhile. Leaving Würgendorf behind, cycle through a lush green beech forest to Holzhausen. The half-timbered ensemble around the "Alte Schule" with a nature study room, local history room, and the church is worth a rest. Then continue through Holzhausen towards Niederdresselndorf. Here, too, the equally historic village center is worth admiring. The church of Niederdresselndorf also invites you to pause. Via the signed cycle path, you reach Oberdresselndorf. You leave the village and reach the open landscape of Hickengrund. This special natural area impresses the landscape. Not without reason, 31 nature reserves and a European bird sanctuary are designated in Burbach. Hazel grouse and black stork are just some rare animal species to admire. Before a magnificent view of Liebenscheid opens, you leave North Rhine-Westphalia. Via an ascent, you come to Rhineland-Palatinate. At the top, you meet the Rothaarsteig, a magnificent view. On the left, you notice the approach lighting of Siegerland Airport. Through Liebenscheid, past the small church, it goes over the barbecue hut towards Lippe. On the right is Siegerland Airport. Scenic flights and parachute jumps are possible here. Back on the bike tour, you cross the B54 and turn to Lippe, the southernmost village in Westphalia. Past the village community center, a rapid descent leads through the Buchhellertal. This special spot still shows relics of the Siegerland mining tradition. Before that, spectacular views can still be enjoyed in clear weather. After leaving the Buchhellertal, you come along lush green meadows and the Buchheller river flowing on the left in the valley back to the starting point at the town hall.
