Directions

The starting point of this bike route is the **"Reisegarten" parking lot in Raumland:** you can easily get rolling downstream here. The route leads straight along the Eder River to Arfeld. Upon arriving in the village, a first stop is worthwhile. Here, the **"Open Bike Path Church"** invites you to a moment of peace and reflection. The **Arfeld Smithy** also recommends a visit due to its interesting history.

The route initially goes slightly uphill with a short steep section that leads you into the historically rich Upper Hüttental in Schwarzenau. Your efforts will be rewarded here with wonderful views. A visit to the **Alexander Mack Museum** lets you learn about the history of the Pietists in Wittgenstein.

Then it rushes down again towards Schwarzenau, past the **Augenstein Via Adrina** to the village center. Visually, the focus here is the **manor house directly by the Eder bridge**.

The path then leads back towards Arfeld. There, the **Via Adrina Center** invites you to rest with its **railway café** and a public toilet.

Between Arfeld and Dotzlar, you climb the next hill. The sweat-inducing effort is made up for by the **viewing platform at Hainbach** above Arfeld.

Over a **panoramic route**, the path continues to Dotzlar, then along the Eder River. From there, you cycle back along the Eder cycle path to the **slate village Raumland**.
