It's easy to drive on in good weather, otherwise it's more difficult.

There used to be up to 150 sawmills along the streams in the Franconian Forest valleys. The sawmill at the blast furnace in the Steinach Valley ceased operation in 1980.

A beautiful cycle path in an interesting region and the highlight at the end is the already landscaped park of the State Garden Show and the upper town up to the castle in Kronach.
