If the Wine God Bacchus had been a cyclist, then he would definitely have made a stopover in the Ahr Valley. It belongs to one of the richest historically traditional regions and is famous for its first class red wine.

On the steep slopes of the Ahr Valley the climate is comparable to that of Spain and Italy. No wonder that a vital Wellness Culture has grown which includes Spa Swimming Pools and other encompassing  health programmes including therapy for diseases of the musculoskeletal system and metabolic disorders, rheumatism, cardiac, circulatory and vascular disorders, with one goal in sight, that of greater enjoyment of life.

You ride at the foot of imposing vineyards and your eyes meet one sight more beautiful as the last one you passed by.  Your tour will take you past Romanic and Gothic Churches, some built 900 years ago. E.g. St. Maria Himmelfahrt Church in Altenahr, St. Laurentius in Ahrweiler or St. Peter in Sinzig.  You are welcome to visit our churches and also view the decorated chapels along the roadside.
