Saaleradweg near Kahla

Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle path along the Saale is extremely varied. You rarely cycle on a country road, but much more often on cycle paths. And every now and then the route takes a detour onto a beautiful “gravel” path, which usually also offers a wonderful view.

Saaleradweg

Highlight • Cycleway

The Saale Cycle Path is quite easy to ride. Further north, you come to the Saale-Unstrut wine region. Tip: You should definitely visit the Kaatschen winery, even if it's just for a pint.

Saale River at Maua

Highlight • River

The Saale flows leisurely through the landscape near Maua. From the bridge you have a nice view and with a bit of luck you can wave to a few boaters.

Park above the Lobeda Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The tunnel was built from 2003 with the six-lane expansion of the A4 as part of the transport project German unit No. 15 as a landscaped enclosure to relieve the adjacent residential area Jena-Lobeda of traffic noise. A park was built on the tunnel (Wikipedia).

Bowden cables are divine, thanks to a new invention they should last at least 10 years, but the brake pads are off
