    Roadbook

    The circular route starts at the Kultur.Palais.Lichtenstein. Behind the palace, follow the signposts and cycle downhill along the park. Turn right onto Waldenburger Straße and immediately afterwards left, following the signposts, cycle along the field path. The signposting then leads left under the railway and immediately left again in the opposite direction. After crossing Glauchauer Straße, leave the paved path straight ahead towards the playground (no signpost present!).
    Cycle past the playground and then continue to follow the signpost. As soon as Rümpfstraße is reached, turn right onto it, cross the B 173 and immediately afterwards turn left into Birnenallee. Follow Birnenallee to the shooting range and now keep left to cross the B 173. Then turn right via "An der Funkenburg", "Funkenburg" and Burgstraße to the Alberthöhe lookout tower. Continue along Burgstraße and at the end of the forest turn right into the woods. Cycle through the forest following the signposting. Leave the forest in Heinrichsort and cycle through the village following the signposts. Then go straight ahead via the field path to Rödlitz. Here again follow the signposting first right and later left. Via Hohndorf you now return to the starting point.
