The indeland cycle routes run mainly on car-free paths, cycle paths along roads and in some cases on low-traffic side roads with predominantly flat gradients.The 15-kilometre tour leads through a varied landscape of forests, fields and meadows towards Sophienhöhe, which rises 200 meters above the agricultural landscape of the Jülicher Börde and is therefore a respectable mountain visible from afar. It is almost completely wooded and has therefore been a popular recreational area for hikers and cyclists for many years - not least because it is free of car traffic. On the way back, we pass the Jülich Research Center, which enjoys an excellent reputation worldwide.In the historic fortress town of Jülich, a detour to the Jülich Citadel is worthwhile for those interested in culture and for families with children a visit to the Brückenkopf Park with its wide range of leisure activities.
