Ilm Weir, Mellingen and Untermühle

Highlight • Monument

The Ilmwehr in Mellingen is located directly on the Thuringian town chain (cycle path from Eisenach to Altenburg). There is also a nice rest area. The weir belongs to the Untermühle, a cultural monument.

Paulinenturm (Touringen Stamp Point No. 344)

Highlight • Monument

When the weather is good, you can enjoy a wonderful and wide view. To get to the tower's platform, you climb more or less through a folding door.

Ilm Weir Fish Ladder, Oberweimar

Highlight • Structure

I am particularly pleased to be able to create this highlight, the new fish staircase Oberweimar to overcome the weir! -) Always a pleasant place to linger and observe the water and the surrounding nature!

August 30, 2023,Drei-Türme-Runde / Extended Version mit Schloß Belvedere & Kirschbachtal

The three towers are always worth a visit! The route is very beautiful and varied, a lot of forest and hiking trails, short sections of bike path, a few trails. Only 300 meters forest highway, hardly any roads. Initially well suited for gravel, later only MTB and I was also happy to be on the fully bike.
