Tips

Caro "LadyOutdoors"

August 15, 2020

Mountain biking

The former section of the federal motorway 4 through the Hörselberge was shut down and dismantled at the beginning of 2010. It no longer met the current safety standards and, among other things, the proximity to the nature reserve made the expansion impossible. The section should offer "car hikers" a nice view of the Wartburg.

Hiking

In my childhood, the A4 motorway ran here; today you can practically walk on the motorway. A unique experience for those who remember the motorway, and impressive for anyone looking down from the Hörselberge hills at the clearing at the foot of the mountains. You can still see it, but nature is slowly reclaiming everything.
