September 2, 2021,von Schleusingen zur Talsperre Schönbrunn dann zum Bergsee Ratscher

Today we went back to southern Thuringia, where the drinking water that I drank in the 70s and 80s is treated. 😁😁
Then to the mountain lake Ratscher, known for the Country Festival
In the middle of the route this time a fallen tree. Fortunately we were able to get through there somehow ..

September 8, 2021,Hoch zum Rennsteig

Steep climbs and rapid descents and wonderful views of the still well-preserved nature. From the reservoir it goes steadily uphill to just before Allzunah, then on the road left towards Frauenwalds over the Fraubachmühle downhill towards Schleusinger-Neundorf etc.! In the old train station you can also strengthen yourself with nice people!

It is always nice to roam the nature of the Thuringian Forest by bike! But around the lake you can also walk very nicely with a few resting points!
