A beautiful and sometimes busy cycle path, which is also not particularly wide.

The Nordpark is the largest public park in Erfurt. The expansive meadows, the nearby Nordbad swimming pool, and the hiking trails along the Gera river leading to the city center and the northern part of the city are the park's highlights.

It's a great place to relax; the water is illuminated in the evenings.
