Gita in bici di un giorno da Winterberg a Meschede

Hop on your bike for a picturesque ride from Winterberg to Meschede, a real treat in the heart of the Sauerland. Starting high up in the ski and outdoor sports hub of Winterberg—famous for its winter vibes and bike parks—you’ll head northwest over about 40 kilometers of rolling countryside.

The route gives you a proper descent (over 700 meters!), so expect plenty of speedy downhill fun, especially as you drop from the heights of Winterberg (around 686 meters elevation). Most of your way is on paved or asphalt surfaces, though you’ll also cruise along some gravel tracks and peaceful paths—so maybe take a bike that can handle a bit of variety.

You’ll skirt forests, meadows, and quiet villages, following mostly tranquil roads—perfect for soaking in Sauerland’s lush scenery. Your ride finishes up in Meschede, a lively town on the Ruhr river, known for its lakeside leisure spots and vibrant beer gardens. It’s a classic Sauerland ride: hills, nature, and plenty of fresh air!
