Gita in bici di un giorno da Brilon a Willingen

Brilon to Willingen Cycling Route Description

Set off on a scenic ride from Brilon, a charming little town famous as the gateway to the Sauerland region. The route covers just over 20 km, so it's manageable, but be prepared—there’s a fair bit of climbing, with almost 600 meters of ascent!

You'll mostly be gliding along quiet country roads and gravel tracks, so a trekking or gravel bike is a solid choice. About half the route is paved or asphalt, but you’ll hit a good amount of gravel and unpaved sections too, winding through peaceful forests and open meadows as you make your way south. Keep an eye out for panoramic views and the dramatic hills typical of the region.

Your destination, Willingen, is a lively resort town known for its ski jumps and year-round outdoor activities. It’s a great spot to reward yourself with a local snack or even take on more cycling adventures in the Upland mountains!

All in all, it’s a beautiful and moderately challenging ride that gives you a taste of Sauerland’s best landscapes, ideal for adventurous spirits who aren’t afraid of a bit of a climb.
