The "Rhönexpress Bahn-Radweg", which opened in 2019, begins near Altengronau (Hessen) on the state border with Bavaria (Zeitlofs).
The beautiful bike path leads over the Staatsbad Brückenau with a moderate gradient along the Sinn to Wildflecken.

The area is great to explore on the Rhöner Express cycle path. It was built on the former route of the Sinntalbahn.

June 7, 2026,Rhönexpress Bahnradweg 2026: Altengronau <-> Wildflecken
Today we did a very nice tour in the Bavarian Rhön. We went from Altengronau to Wildflecken and back on the wonderfully developed Rhönexpress railway cycle path.
The car can be parked at the swimming pool in Altengronau. In Bad Brückenau there is an opportunity to stop for refreshments. We did this at Pappert.

It was a successful day 😊🚴🚴‍♀️A great bike path with only friendly cyclists 👌🚴

Today the tour on the wonderful Rhönexpress Bahnradweg. It always increases, but very moderately, until wild spots. But the descent makes up for everything. Unfortunately, stopping off in Wildflecken is not the best. On the way back we always stop at the Pappert in Bad Brueckenau. There are two in town.

The Rhönexpress Rail Cycle Route is a fantastic tour for everyone. The scenery is beautiful and varied. There's also a nice pub along the way. What more could you want? 🙂👍

Unfortunately there is still no cafe, no ice cream parlor and no snack bar or anything like that in Wildflecken. In any case, we didn't find anything and didn't discover any clues.

Today's tour took us once again on the wonderful Rhönexpress railway cycle path. It is the disused railway line that ran from Jossa to Wildflecken. It climbs steadily, but very moderately, until Wildflecken. But the descent makes up for everything. Unfortunately, the places to stop in Wildflecken are not the best. The existing restaurants were closed. On the way back, …

A nice tour for up and down.

There wasn't that much going on on the track. The encounters were limited. Long forest passages made driving pleasant.

In Wildflecken I took a long break and on the way back 4 km before the end of the route I stopped at the black sales van and enjoyed a homemade passion fruit ice …
