The new Unstrud-Werra cycle path is very flat and absolutely new. Not only suitable for cycling, but also for hiking or skating...

Cherries and mirabelle plums in abundance, and to top it all off, a Thuringian plum at Heldrungen train station. It was gone so quickly, hence no picture 😁😋. Definitely a must-see 😊
