Detour Ahr cycle path Walporzheim - Sinzig

Large parts of the Ahr cycle path were destroyed during the flood disaster in the Ahr valley in July 2021. Since these parts remain impassable, this route represents an alternative route from Walporzheim to Sinzig. The detour is marked with the usual cycle path signage (green bicycle on a white background) and/or the signage of the replacement route Ahr cycle path.
