Wiesent Valley Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The very beautiful Wiesenttal, in which only one or two little hills have to be conquered. One tip is to take a break in the Sachsenmühle, which you pass by.

October 1, 2021,🇩🇪 Muggendorf /Wiesenttal- Quackenschloß - Wasserfall - Riesenburg

A super nice tour, with great weather, but unfortunately the cell phone did not record the rest of the tour properly due to the lack of battery! The giant castle and Quackenschloß were very beautiful, even if we walked the last few meters.
