Große Dhünn Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The drinking water dam and its banks are protected by law. Therefore, there are hardly any negative effects on nature. Almost the entire hike is off-road. You feel very much for yourself. Pleasant!

Today, after a long break, I finally went out on my mountain bike again and cycled around the Dhünn Dam.
It was beautiful, but also quite strenuous.

Today I rode the penultimate tour of 2024. It was a really nice and very sporty year for me. I had planned 3,000km for 2023, after around 2,900km in 2022 and less than 2,000km in the years before. I drove over 4,000km. 😳I was particularly inspired by the training, with a focus on altitude, for the Mont Ventoux Tour (komoot.de/tour/1197202341?ref=itd)

We drove a nice lap in the snow around the Dhünntalsperre in the most beautiful sunshine. Partly it was a snow hike with a bike😂.

Had a lovely ride around the Dhünntalsperre with Martin. It was really good fun.
