The route takes you up to Hilchenbach's mountain village Lützel via the Vormwalder customs post. From here, you accept a stretch of asphalt to enjoy a magnificent valley view. You pass the source of the Eder and reach the Ederkopf. A little further, you look down on Erndtebrück and far into the Wittgensteiner Land. On the way back, you get to know the untouched and idyllic Elberndorftal.

Welcome to Hilchenbach in the middle of the Rothaargebirge!

Thanks to its exposed location on the main ridge of the Rothaargebirge, Hilchenbach is the ideal starting point for mountain bike routes into Siegerland, Sauerland, or Wittgensteiner Land. Both tour bikers and marathon riders will find great routes, as the region offers perfect infrastructure for beginners and ambitious riders alike. Whether on your own, with GPS navigation (rentable at the Hilchenbach Tourist Information), or with a local guide - everyone can discover the most beautiful corners of the region on their bike.

Advantageously, all routes start from the same  starting point, the marketplace, Hilchenbach's showroom. After your arrival, you can confidently leave your car and enjoy your stay with your bike.
