Unfortunately, due to the flood in 2021, construction work is still going on between Bonsfelder - Elfringhauser Straße. The piece bypassing Wodan and Elfringhauser Str. (vegetable barn). #Update: The road is to be reopened from autumn 2022.

Herzkamp–Horath Scenic Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Connecting road between the towns of Herzkamp and Horath.
Somewhat patched road, you should be careful and avoid the patches of potholes, otherwise it rolls slightly wavy. :-)

Winding road up to Sender Langenberg

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The ascent directly from Langenberg is a bit winding through forests directly to the Langenberg transmitter. From there you have a beautiful view over the Ruhr area.

It then continues either wavy over the Höhenweg or down the Hüserstraße.

Langenberg Transmitter

Highlight • Monument

3 ways to torment here, rest stop Bismarkturm.
By no means take the footpath suggested by Komoot in the northern ascent, but with a 38% incline, I'm down, but I'm not tough enough even with 34 to 32 Omagang.

Climb to Langenberg Transmitter

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

A long but fairly steady climb. From the very bottom, the climb is about four kilometers long, with brand new asphalt. The road invites you to climb and take a quick descent.
