Solztal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

A very nice bike path. It is an old ice rink route. This runs from Bad Hersfeld to Schenklengsfeld. There are always opportunities to rest. One or the other beer garden is on the Solztalradweg.

Entrance to the Ulstertal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Ulster Valley Cycle Path, one of the railway lines in Hesse that has been developed into a cycle path. It is a special pleasure to follow it, first on a nice and flat path to the Kuppenrhön and becoming ever steeper over Tann and Hilders and on the final climb up to the Ulsterquelle in the Hohe Rhön. The culmination of such a tour could then be the Wasserkuppe. From up there you have - with appropriate visibility - a wonderful overview of the route traveled.

Blue Bridge over the Ulster River

Highlight • Bridge

Shortly before Wenigentaft, coming from Buttlar, the Ulstertal cycle path uses a large, blue railway bridge to cross the Ulster. Shortly behind there is a plot of land with a large mill wheel - it looks like electricity is generated here from hydropower.

May 28, 2022,RM Fahrradtour vom 🚉 Burghaun ➡️🚉Friedlos über Schenklenksfeld

Cycling was the order of the day again today. The first real tour of the year. Half of the tour runs along old railway lines and the highlight was the oldest linden tree in Germany in Schenklenksfeld with its four trunks (images 10-13).
LG 🙋‍♂️ and have a nice rest of the weekend

Today was pure leisurely cycling. The weather was at its best and so we set off from Bad Hersfeld station, the starting point of the Hessen railway cycle path. On the route of the former Hersfeld district railway, we went gently but steadily uphill into the land of the white mountains. These are the huge spoil heaps in the Hessian-Thuringian …
