On the Saaleradweg near Orlamünde and Freienorla, you pass the confluence of the small Orla river into the Saale. There is a covered rest stop and a bench to linger.

Currently a very finely rolled forest path, no potholes, but quite dusty after a long dry period

A beautiful route along the Orla River and train platforms. 😁 Especially not very busy, which surprised me, but oh well 🤷. All the more peaceful for cycling 🚴♀️.
