Once again this year, the Cycling Tour gives you the choice between two routes. Both routes start in front of the Saarland State Theatre in Saarbrücken and end just a few hundred metres away with the original finish line of the Deutschland Tour professionals on Stengelstrasse and Heuduckstrasse.
At 55 km and around 500 metres in altitude, the Tälerrunde is suitable for amateur athletes of all levels. Whether you want to get a taste of the racing atmosphere for the first time or have already taken part in a number of cycling events, the Tälerrunde offers the right experience for everyone. You will cross several valleys around the state capital of Saarbrücken and master the final kilometres, which the elite field will also pass shortly afterwards.
The Bliesgau Loop runs for around 100 kilometres through the picturesque Bliesgau biosphere reserve. The hilly landscape of the race route is characterised by a mosaic of extensive orchards, valuable beech forests, species-rich orchid meadows and an impressive floodplain landscape, which is crossed by the eponymous river, the Blies. Around 1,000 metres in altitude await you on the Bliesgau loop.
The exact route maps and elevation profiles are yet to be announced.
