Oldest Tree in Jena (Summer Linden at the Papiermühle Brewery Beer Garden)

Highlight • Natural Monument

Quaint pub with home-brewed delicious beer. You can also join a guided tour of the brewery. In summer you sit comfortably in the beer garden around an ancient linden around it

Leutra Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Especially recommended in summer as it is nice and cool. It's great to see how quickly nature has regained its realm after the A4 was dismantled.

The Alte Jena-Burgau bridge is a 142.4 meter long stone arch bridge from 1534, which spans the Saale at the Jena districts Burgau and Lobeda. (also only Wikipedia ;-)

But it is really nice, especially in winter

Wonderful when the 🌞 shines on the weekend. Today we went on well-known paths to the forest and through the Leutratal. Unfortunately, my orientation was hidden under the forest of leaves, so I drove an extra handlebar again at the height and later wondered that one or the other hiker was faster than me. But in Jena's surroundings all roads …

A nice round in good company! We packed the pleasantly cool Leutra valley into our tour bag today, the always beautiful view from the Haeckelstein, a few ponds in the forest and, the best thing for last, the wonderful trail descent over Kahleshöhe, with the finish line in a tavern. A nice start to the weekend.

September 10, 2023,Kühles Leutratal 🌻 am weltmeisterlichen S🏀nntag 🚴🏼‍♀️

I like to avoid fixed appointments on the weekend, but my goal today was clear: I had to be back on time for the tip-off of the world championship basketball final! There was history in the air, pure excitement.
My lap wasn't quite as exciting, but it rolled well and was nice and cool, especially in the Leutra Valley. It …

Good day,

Saturday was little time. Only the morning hours had gold in the mouth and the sky was blue and the rape stands like one and steals the show from the fragrant pod.

For Kötsch it would have been too tight under time pressure. So I took a variation on Petra's recent round. @Petra

STAY. Nope. After a short forced break, I was really looking forward to a little Sunday ride. I followed my nose, guided a little by a spontaneous meeting with @Dirk🌲🌳, who was also traveling with the 🚲. We picked up in Maua and drove a short section together. Most of the orchids aren't quite sure about the warm weather yet, …

My withdrawal symptoms were getting worse and worse, so I've finally decided to be healthy. After ages of abstinence, the ride felt pretty good. I thought I'd just have one long climb, but I ended up gaining quite a bit of elevation. The fact that I didn't notice it is a good sign 😅
Happy first Advent 🕯!

Oh, time is running out, the rain is falling, the tour is already 24 hours old. It was beautiful, nature is exploding and outdoing itself in beauty, color and lushness. And in the evening you can enjoy it in peace. We tried to kick off the blanket of leaden tiredness that has affected us all this week. It only worked …

Favorite tour! Well, one of many 🙃 In the evening I wanted to push myself a bit again. Everyone streamed home, including me. I wanted to arrive in Göschwitz before it got really dark. And before that, take a photo of an Adonis rose. I like the story: the plant owes its beautiful name to the tears of Aphrodite, goddess …
