Medebach - Through the Aar and Orketal valleys (M3)

The circular bike route is signposted throughout with a green "M3."The starting point is Medebach’s market square. From there, we turn right onto Österstraße and ride to the cemetery. We pass the cemetery, the Österntor playground, and the Nonnenkreuz on our way. We follow this road downhill into the Brühne Valley. At Faust, we then follow the road steeply uphill for about 200 meters.A descent of about 2 km awaits us, past the Faust Forest House, to the fish ponds in the Aartal valley. We then cross the Aar Bridge until we turn right into the Aartal valley. After a while, we cross the Aar via a bridge and reach a barbecue hut. From here, we follow the path toward Münden.We ride downhill into the town, then turn left just before the church onto the road to Neukirchen. Immediately after the bridge, we turn right toward the Münden sports field. After another 200 m, we turn right into the valley and continue to the end of the path before Roninghausen. Now we continue straight ahead to the Medebach/Berge wastewater treatment plant and turn right onto the Medebach-Münden road (L858). Follow the road about 100 m to the left, then turn right shortly after the bridge onto a paved dirt road. The route climbs gently through a wooded area and then continues on flat ground to the Holtischfeld industrial park. We first turn right, then left through the industrial park and soon reach the paved dirt road leading from Faust to Medebach.
