The bike path is very nice to ride, but be careful: in places it goes very steeply downhill next to the bike path.

Always along the water, but it must have been low tide 😂
Joking aside, the Edersee is at an extremely low tide, which means you can see the bridge and the old foundations again; you can even walk over the old bridge.
Of course, coffee and cake were a must.

Visiting relatives at the Edersee 🙂
So today there was something for everyone. We had great weather... roads, forests, meadows, and bike paths... all great to ride. I even managed the MTB trails well with the gravel bike.
Great views, seating at every corner, sometimes in the shade, sometimes in the sun 🌞 So, we'll definitely ride here again...
