How accessible is the Ruhr Valley cycle path?
The Ruhr Valley cycle path is barrier-friendly and mostly barrier-free. For less experienced cyclists we recommend to start in Olsberg. Due to several problem areas and the slopes, the path from Winterberg to Olsberg can be insurmountable for untrained drivers. Nevertheless, we recommend that people with disabilities do not ride alone on the Ruhr Valley cycle path.
