June 12, 2025,✔️ Etappe 9️⃣ - Saaleradweg von Bernburg zur Saalemündung und Pömmelte

We've finally begun our 9th and final stage of the Saale Cycle Path. We cycled the first 8 stages in 2022 and they were "hidden" in Komoot until now. Now I'm unlocking the other stages as well.

August 7, 2024,Saaleradweg 7. Etappe- Bernburg - Calbe - Barby - Verlängerung Ringheiligtum Pömmelte- Schönebeck

Saale cycle path ticked off. Today the final stage from Bernburg to Barby. We had lunch in Barby. Cycle paths partly go along country roads, but there are few cars on them. Partly cobblestones. We then cycled on to the Pömmelte ring sanctuary, had a little look around there and then to the train station in Schönebeck.
