Carl Zeiss Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The construction work is ongoing. It's best to take the detour straight away and then back onto the Saale cycle path at the Pioneer Bridge.

View of the Saale Bridge in Saalfeld

Highlight • Viewpoint

This section of the Saale cycle path through Saalfeld is, in my opinion, the most beautiful. There are numerous places for a cozy break, where you can let your eyes wander or just listen to the roar of the Saale.

Göritzmühle Weir

Highlight • Structure

Nice play opportunity for children. Maybe with bathing shoes.
Others also go with hiking boots and gaiters (komoot.de/tour/897261757?ref=atd)
along the Schwarza.
