The Ruhr-Eder GeoRadroute connects the Sauerland with the Waldeck region over 210 kilometers. You experience the regions in a special way: On the one hand in the Ruhr and Eder valleys, on the other hand many kilometers over former railroad lines.
One of Germany's largest reservoirs, the Edersee, awaits you. The route also takes you on a journey through the GrenzWelten National Geopark. Exciting insights into the history of the earth and the development of the landscape await you.
We invite you to discover the geological, historical and cultural development on the eastern edge of the Rothaargebirge by bike. Get to know and understand the natural and cultural landscape.
