Cycle paths in the Westerwald forest

Explore the Westerwald forest on the most beautiful long-distance and themed cycle paths

From day bike tours to longer tours to action-packed mountain bike routes, the Westerwald has the right bike tour for everyone.

Experience ceramic arts and the Gelbachtal valley on the cycle path Südlicher Westerwald, follow the cycle path Puderbacher Land or the Saynbach cycle path - all tours can be comfortably done within one day.

To reach your destination on the Nister Cycle Path, the Westerwald Rhine Cycle Path, the Wied Cycle Path or the Ruhr-Sieg Cycle Path, you can pedal a little harder - if you prefer a more leisurely pace, you can include an overnight stay.

Mountain bike fans will feel at home on the Altenkirchen mountain bike route network and for "real cyclists" the Westerwaldschleife offers a varied cycle tour around the Westerwald for several days.
