Scenic Route Through Itztal from Coburg to Baunach

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

good alternative to the rather "boring" Itzgrund cycle path.
Narrow, well paved road, no significant traffic.
Can be wonderfully extended in both directions, i.e. both in the direction of Schottenstein and in the direction of Scherneck
