Directions
The circular cycle route is signposted throughout with a green "M2".It starts directly at the market square and leads us into Niederstraße until the large crossroads. There we turn right into Hallenberg Straße. After 150 m uphill, we turn right into Schützenstraße. We follow the road to the left past Nussbaumweg and Rotdornweg to the crossroads at the two sports fields (towards Klapperhaus). Now we descend steeply into the valley of the Gelängebach stream. We follow the Gelängebach stream uphill to the left and meet the country road at the Mittelmühle mill. Caution is advised here! Turn left onto the road, slightly uphill and then right to the junction to Berge. We stay in the Orke valley. Now turn left uphill towards Medebach.
