This is where the Wisper River rises. The Wiper Valley winds its wild, romantic way to Lorch, where it flows into the Rhine. A very beautiful route, also for cyclists. But only during the week. Motorcyclists flood the route on weekends ;-)

Drive a little carefully ☝🏼🙏🏼! A cyclist coming downhill made me sick because he was going too fast, was carried off the bend and slammed into me!
