Elevated lookout point, which enables this panoramic view. Here are two benches that invite you to take a breather. When the weather is nice, both benches are usually occupied.

Klausmarbach Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

For me it is always something special to drive over this bridge.
The viaduct near Klausmarbach used to be used as a railway line. In 1938 the 120 meter long bridge was widened significantly so that it could also be used as a double track. The bridge is 32 meters high and has 5 sandstone vaults with a length of 18 meters each. Today it is used as a bike path and a nice resting and viewing area has been created.

View of Burghaun

Highlight • Viewpoint

To see Burghaun from the hill - for me it has something. But no matter where you stand, you only ever see part of Burghaun, never the whole village.

ADAC bike service station at the historic “Bimbel” railway carriage

Highlight • Rest Area

The ADAC bicycle service station was recently installed on the historic railway carriage "Bimbel". It is equipped with various screwdrivers and wrenches as well as tire levers to repair a flat tire. The existing air pump must be operated with the foot. The air pressure can be read on a pressure gauge. Between the two holders, in the middle at the top, you can hang the bike comfortably on the saddle so that the wheels can rotate freely. It is better, however, that you are not dependent on this service station.

Totenbrücke (The Dead Bridge) over the Haune in Rothenkirchen

Highlight • Bridge

The so-called "Dead Bridge" leads on the way from Rothenkirchen to the cemetery on the Haune. It is the only surviving stone footbridge from ancient times in the Fulda region. Today she has 3 arched openings and an ice pillar. It is an inscribed stone with the number 1861 walled. In the years 1985/86 the dilapidated bridge was demolished and renewed true to the original.

We have known each other since we were children and today, after more than 30 years, we "cycled" together again. That was possible because our buddy from Vietnam 🇻🇳 is visiting. So it had to be a pleasure tour. And for such a tour, it makes sense to go to the pond in Burghaun. So there was enough time during …
