Large shelter on the Bollstedt–Altengottern cycle path

Highlight • Rest Area

The shelter is a little bit off the bike path. If you don't look carefully or don't know where it is, you'll easily drive past it.

March 17, 2026,Tag-1, meine Unstrut-Tour

My first bikepacking tour of 2026 follows the course of the Unstrut River:

Today, my first stage: first, the train journey to Leinefelde, where I briefly visited the source of the Leine River, and then continued via Dingelstädt to Kefferhausen, the source of the Unstrut.
