Lucasweg — Trail along the Wupper

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Lucasweg is partly accompanied by a single trail, which is partly quite sporty with a gravel bike or a normal bike. The path directly on the Wupper can be quite muddy.

A great and varied tour that has a lot to offer, I can warmly recommend it, I would even extend it because there were such great sections that make you want more! But with so many beautiful impressions and photos to take 🙈 you can hardly cycle 🚲 🤣
P.S.: There were also nice places to stop for refreshments!
