Saale Rapids at Almrich

Highlight • River

A detour from here is also worthwhile to Almerich and possibly to the Bismarck Tower (fantastic view and not far).

A short break at this point is definitely worth it. There are seating options and shelters in case of bad weather. The vineyards here are very well maintained.

From here a small wine route begins in the direction of Naumburg. You can stop almost everywhere to enjoy delicious Saale-Unstrut wine.

Is that a good combination, a fast run followed by a wine tasting 🥴🤣? No, the vineyards nestle picturesquely along the limestone cliffs. The wine taverns are a welcome rest stop for refreshments. 👌🥂🤗

Saale-Unstrut Vineyard Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The wine mile between Bad Kösen and Naumburg is not only scenically very beautiful, it also invites you to enjoy the local wine with a small snack with many small rest stops.

View of Saaleck and Rudelsburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The first mention was in 1171. It was part of the protection of the trade route. It was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War, and has been a ruin ever since. A beautiful cycling destination on the Saale bike path.
