Ziegenrück on the Saale River

Highlight • Settlement

Ziegenrück is simply a small, sleepy place between the Thuringian seas. The food is very good and there are countless beautiful cycling and hiking trails. A detour is worthwhile.

September 28, 2023,Fahrradrunde von Ziegenrück zur Linkenmühle und zurück über die Kemenate

I actually wanted to take the mill ferry to the other bank. But due to construction work, the water level has dropped and the ferry is stranded. I then took a different route, which was also very nice. Then I went up to the bower again and lo and behold, it's private and you can't actually see anything.
