Lenneroute

The first half of the Lenneroute runs mainly on cycle paths and quiet side roads.

Between Plettenberg and Iserlohn-Letmathe, cyclists are increasingly routed along roads with heavier traffic. Work is currently underway to improve the route by building new cycle paths or relocating some sections of the route. The very good rail connection between Plettenberg and Iserlohn bridges the critical areas. We recommend this for families with children. For the more experienced cyclist, the "Fernblick variant" from Werdohl to Burg Altena offers a unique "high-altitude experience".

In the Hagen area, the route runs almost continuously on a paved cycle path to the mouth of the Lenne.

The majority of the route is asphalted. The few sections on unpaved forest, field and riverside paths are easy to master topographically. With the exception of the few days when there is snow, the route is easy to cycle all year round.
