• The forest paths in the Teutoburg Forest are generally very easy to cycle on
.
• The "HERMANNSHÖHEN" hiking trail in the Feldrömer Pass - Preußische Velmerstot section is not passable for MTB cyclists
.
• Seasonal weather events or forest maintenance work can lead to damage / obstructions / trail closures
.
• The NRW State Forestry Act must be observed. This has been observed in the route guidance.
• The author accepts no liability for the accuracy of the tourist information / links and the GPX track.
Mobile network reception is limited or not possible in parts of the Teutoburg Forest, please note this when using non-outdoor GPS devices.

A simple MTB is sufficient. Alternatively: Sporty touring bike suitable for climbing with at least 32 mm wide tires or E-MTB.

A spare inner tube and an air pump should not be missing in the lonely wide forests of the Teuto region.

A full drinks bottle is recommended.
