Sorpesee Dam

The Sorpesee is touristically very well developed. Here you can go diving, rowing, sailing, surfing, camping and, which I think is pretty cool, renting tree houses as accommodation (sorpesee.de/nordic-ferienpark-sorpesee/baumhaeuser-am-sorpesee.html). It …

A nice bike ride, there is a good bike path that leads around the Sorpesee.

Today I went on another lovely bike ride in great weather. It was a loop around Lake Sorpe. It was wonderfully relaxing.

On a whim, I drove to Sundern after work on Friday. A beautiful Airbnb apartment welcomed me. I used Saturday to sleep in, have breakfast, and then take a relaxing ride around Lake Sorpe. The entire route follows the beautiful shoreline, paved with cycling paths, partly through the colorful autumn forest. I also cycled around the retention basin near Amecke. …

Hour down, hour around, hour back. There is so much to do and see in this world.

With this weather, you don't just ride around the lake, but also jump in after a picnic🌊... Nice cool water😍🤠

In beautiful weather, we hiked around the entire Sorpesee today. The eastern shore is dominated by dense forest, although some areas have been significantly reforested since Kyrill.
The western shore is dominated by numerous campsites.

My Biobike has been sadly sitting in the basement since March 16, 2023. 🫣
Today it finally got some fresh air again.
After a quick inspection (oiling the chain, checking tire pressure, checking nuts and bolts, etc.), it hit the trails.
Oh, how wonderful that was.
After just the first few pedal strokes, it was already a lot of fun …

On Saturday I spontaneously went to Sorpesee because I was in Balve and read the signs there to see how close I was.

So I went over and got my bike ready to go in a parking lot.

Wow.

The route at the beginning felt like it was going steadily uphill through the forest, but it was fantastically beautiful.
