Cycling under the sign of the bat: a cycling experience away from the road, on perfectly asphalted paths: This is what the SauerlandRadring with HenneseeSchleife offers.

Finnentrop, Eslohe, Schmallenberg and Lennestadt are the four main towns on the SauerlandRadring. The 40 km long HenneseeSchleife connects the SauerlandRadring via the picturesque Wennetal valley down to the Ruhrtal, the district town of Meschede and the Hennetalsperre dam. There is no fixed start and end point, you can "hop on" at any point - similar to the train.
The HenneseeSchleife is currently still signposted with the SauerlandRadring Nordschleife logo.
Some of the evidence of the railroad's past can still be seen along the route: in addition to old signal systems, buffer stops and wagons, you can also marvel at old steam locomotives. And as a special highlight, the famous Kückelheim "Fledermaustunnel" awaits cyclists.
Since 2015, the entire Sauerland region has been signposted with the junction system: www.radeln-nach-zahlen.de/de/Das-KonzeptFor the SauerlandRadring, it is therefore best to follow the logo or the junction sequence.Junction sequence: 50 - 52 - 39 - 37 - 41 - 46 - 47 - 48 - 50 - 49 - 55 - 42 - 44 - 45- 26 - 27 - 23 - 22 - 28 - 29 - 44 - 45 - 46 - 50
A rescue point system has been installed throughout the region (Soest district, Hochsauerlandkreis, Märkischer Kreis, Olpe district and Siegen-Wittgenstein district). Rescue points can be found on the information boards at junctions and hiking signs.
In the evening, the Himmelstreppe in Meschede is illuminated and offers an impressive sight and view.
