Today I rode the Flowtrail, the root path along the train tracks and the three small descents in Neukloster Forst. I really liked the route and can recommend it. Fallen trees, I could ride around or push the bike. The root path along the railway line is not "easy", on some sections I had to push my bike. A resting place is located by the lake, a very beautiful spot to linger and relax. After the lake, the root path also begins.

The Auetal is worth a visit....whether on foot or by bike (and it doesn't matter if with natural / chain or hub gears or with an e-bike). Many paths are flat / without significant gradients. I myself have my health limitations and for me these routes are also challenges, but doable....each at their own pace and difficulty level. I even know some who were able to reduce their medication dosage because of it.... So, just be brave and start slowly or increase gradually...many things are doable (perhaps for everyone, but for some).
