Brachwitzer Alpen Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

For me one of the most beautiful cycling destinations in the region. From Halle I always take the Saale Cycle Path to the Brachwitz ferry, cross over there, return to the Saalekiez and drive back via Franzigmark and the "Hafen".

The promenade is ideal for walking. But it is sometimes very crowded on weekends.
