Reichsbahn Bridge Leuna

Highlight • Bridge

☆ Driving up is such a "thing" ... better push the bike on the very narrow driveway. Is a junction on the Saale, this is used a lot.

June 20, 2025,Bad Dürrenberg - Merseburg 🚂🌤🌞🌬🌷🚲🍽🚲🍺🍰☕️🚂

Today was declared a "rest day." Still, 18km... took the train to Bad Dürrenberg, strolling through last year's State Garden Show, before leisurely strolling along the Saale River to Merseburg. There, we had lunch and, after a city tour and a relaxing time by the Saale River, we took the train back via Großkorbetha.
