The Biggesee-Listersee nature adventure area offers a perfect infrastructure for cyclists. In addition to the typical rolling Sauerland landscape with hills, forests and valleys, secluded roads and challenging trails offer optimal conditions.

The starting point of the GPX track is the train station in Olpe. However, you can of course start this circular tour at any point.

The high-altitude route (one of the two variants of the Bigge-Lister-Radweg) connects the towns of Olpe, Attendorn and Drolshagen as well as Bigge and Listersee and, at approx. 65 km, is a challenging tour that requires a reasonable level of fitness.

The route is equipped with information boards to inform you of the current location. Along the way, numerous rest stops and rest areas invite you to linger.
