Rest area on the Orla Cycle Path in Langenorla

Highlight • Rest Area

On my popular "Saale-Orla-Tour" by bike starting in Jena via Kahla, Pößneck, Saalfeld and Rudolstadt back to Jena, this is always the first place where I take my break.

Scenic Path Along the Orla

Highlight • Trail

A beautiful route along the Orla River and train platforms. 😁 Especially not very busy, which surprised me, but oh well 🤷. All the more peaceful for cycling 🚴‍♀️.

Lowest Point of the Saalfeld-Rudolstadt District (Niederkrossen)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The sign here told me it was 166 m above sea level and sometimes it is so deep that the Saale spills over the banks 😅

View of Orlamünde from the Saale River

Highlight • Viewpoint

directly at the cycle path alternative between Freienorla and Niederkrossen there is a flat course of the cycle path. At this point, it offers a good bottom-up view. (Upper town of Orlamünde with church and bower)
