Always along the former railway line - therefore hardly any inclines.

Both the main road and the cycle path along the old railway line offer beautiful views of the castle and church. Road cyclists usually use the road when traffic is light and the traffic lights are off, as it's faster and shorter. The railway cycle path is a bit longer and more winding, but more interesting, safer, and offers better views. If traffic is heavy, choose the latter. The cycle path is also paved throughout.
