From Niederschmalkalden to Auwallemburg, the cycle path is very beautiful. 80% of the way through is in the shade, which was very pleasant. After the former train station, the path to Mömmelstein became increasingly worse, which was quite a challenge on touring bikes, so we cycled back. For mountain bikers, it's okay.

The start is in Wernshausen, but you can of course also get on in the half-timbered town of Schamlkalden (worth seeing). The cycle path leads uphill to Auwallenburg (not as bad as it looks in the profile). A section of the asphalted path …

Then a few more km to the summit and then came the more adventurous part to the Trusetal waterfall 😎 Most of the tour was on asphalted, great bike paths. Well, another …

Today's tour took us to Thuringia again. We parked the car in Bad Salzungen. From there we took the Werra cycle path as far as Barchfeld. A beautiful section through nature, far away from traffic. On to Breitungen we did not take the official Werra cycle path, as it runs almost the entire way on the road, but a side …
