The nature experience area Biggesee-Listersee offers a perfect infrastructure for cyclists. In addition to the typical swinging landscape of the Sauerland with hills, forests and valleys, lonely roads and challenging trails offer optimal conditions.

The Lakes Route (one of the two variants of the Bigge-Lister Cycle Tour) runs for almost 50 km mainly along the shores of the lakes. The route is equipped with information boards to inform you about the current location. Along the way, numerous rest and resting places invite you to linger.

From the start of the GPX track, the parking lot "Waldenburger Bucht" (of course, the entry into this round trip can be made at any place) near Attendorn, you cycle in a southerly direction always close to the Biggesee. In the course of the second half of the tour, you will soon reach the Lister dam. The dam separates the water masses of Bigge- and Listertalsperre from each other. The tour continues around the Listersee and again around the Biggesee until you finally reach the Biggestaudamm.

Swimming opportunities, the lookout point "BiggeBlick" or the combination with a boat tour ensure a varied tour for the whole family.
