10.05.2026: The surface has been completely renewed, and the cycle path is now also wider, although still not open.

Construction will take place on this paved cycle/pedestrian path until May 2026. The asphalt surface is being renewed due to extensive damage from tree roots. Currently, neither pedestrians nor cyclists are allowed to use this path. Cyclists must use the road or the parallel path in the forest (like pedestrians). No alternative is signposted.
