May 31, 2023,Die Hohenfelsrunde (Forellenbachtal, Vilstal, Lauterachtal, Utzenhofer Bach)

The large circuit around the Hohenfels military training area is a series of beautiful river valleys that you accompany for a certain time. Ideal for normal bicycles and for e-bikes. Most of the time you ride on bike paths. In part, the route could still be optimized, especially the serpentine section to Hohenfels is definitely not for "everyone". The anti-clockwise …

July 2, 2023,Forellenbachtal 🐟- Hohenfels 🪨- Velburg 🏰- Lauterachtal Radweg 🚴🏻‍♀️– Schmidmühlen 😀

Today there was another bike tour in a larger group 😀 with a cloudy sky and a powerful headwind 💨 we started in the direction of Hohenfels - the goal was to circumnavigate the military training area ⭕️🪖 🇺🇸
After we reached Velburg and strengthened ourselves at Andermichl, the weather got a little better. The next stop was not too …

July 16, 2024,An den Wassern von und zu Kallmünz

Today we cycled down several watercourses, valleys and hills from the pearl of the Upper Palatinate - Kallmünz.

We started at the Naab. From there we crossed the stone bridge through the town with the famous rock dwelling. The Vils was then our first "river". We followed it to Rohrbach. There we turned into the valley of the Forellenbach. It …

April 30, 2025,Ab Radlbahnhof Kastl rund um den Truppi Hohenfels

The tour begins at the Radlbahnhof (bike station) in Kastl, which is a great starting point for many tours. I did a similar tour about three years ago, but in the opposite direction.

However, this direction, going left, is the better choice. The mountains and climbs are at the beginning; the return route via the Vils and Lauterach valleys is …

September 1, 2024,🚴‍♀️ Von Parsberg rund um den Truppenübungsplatz Hohenfels 🚴

I had planned today's tour from Parsberg to Schmidmühlen and back. At the turning point in Schmidmühlen, I thought to myself that I actually prefer a circular tour. So I continued the tour and cycled completely around the Hohenfels military training area in an anti-clockwise direction. Once again, a very nice bike tour with great and well-developed bike paths. There …

July 13, 2023,Parsberg-Rund um den Truppenübungsplatz-Parsberg

A wonderful tour, mostly on paved bike paths. During a drinking break near Lauf, I forgot to switch off the GPS break, so part of the route was not recorded.
