Perfect asphalt. Traffic is limited. Better than the Ilm cycle path in this section.

Buchfart–Oettern Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Perfect asphalt. Traffic is limited. Definitely better suited for racing cyclists than the Ilm cycle path between these villages.

Pfeiffer's Mill

Highlight • Monument

...a working watermill on the Ilm River, right next to a covered wooden bridge. Rebuilt in 1613, it operated commercially until 1968, and the iron waterwheel was reconstructed in 1982.

Opposite the mill is a great rest area with a small parking space, perfect for soaking up the mill-themed atmosphere of the Ilm Valley and then exploring the surrounding area... ;-)

The landmarked covered house bridge from 1816 crosses the Ilm in Buchfart over a length of 43 meters and offers a track width of 3.20 meters. On both sides are narrow walkways for pedestrians. Through the sunken windows you have a beautiful view of the Ilm and a watermill.

Descent to Hetschburg

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very fast descent, speeds over 60km / h are achievable. Attention at the level crossing! That is because it is unlimited.

Holzdorf–Schoppendorf–Bergern Route

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Unfortunately, tarmac is not very good, but there is very little traffic. In Bergern it goes down / up on relatively good pavement. At the crossroads below Bergern, you can quickly drive either to Bad Berka or Hetschburg.
