Saale Bridge, Westheim

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge itself is not a piece of jewelry. The view of the Saale is always nice (and at every bridge). :-)

Railway viaducts near Bad Kissingen

Highlight • Bridge

The building can not be photographed so well, because it is quite ingrown. At any rate, it can bear witness to times when German engineering was still a term with absolute justification.

Old Saale Bridge, Euerdorf

Highlight • Bridge

The old, brick-built, round-arch bridges are simply a feast for the eyes, even if they often only serve as one-way streets... never mind... that has style!

June 7, 2023,Von Hammelburg Diebach nach Bad Kissingen an der fränkischen Saale entlang

The first section went along the Thulbatalradweg and then further along the Rhönradweg along the Franconian Saale. Very beautiful and well signposted bike paths along the castles.

After the heavy rain for breakfast, checked the Wetterapp, the message that there was no rain for the next few hours simply took it seriously and got on the bike. It should be Bad Kissingen today - every day, just 20 km further😂. The drive up the Franconian Saale is quite varied, as the photos and highlights convey. Only the …

March 7, 2026,First Ride Staiger 🚴🏻‍♀️🚴‍♂️😳🥵😱🤣🤩

The climb from Garitz (home of "Dreggsagg" Michel Müller 😄) was quite a test right off the bat 🥵. After that, it was a piece of cake 😆. The ride along the Saale was really lovely 😍. We turned back at the satellite earth station 📡 because it would have been getting a bit late 🌅 for Hammelburg 😄. It …

Unfortunately, the signage leaves a lot to be desired. However, the landscape is very beautiful. But a lot of climbs. I used a lot of battery power here. No charging station found.

This shorter stage towards the mouth of the Main leads almost 10 km over solid farm roads through the forest, on which you feel like you're getting a lot of shaking. But maybe it was just an unfair perception, because somehow exhaustion was setting in. I didn't want to be able to reconcile the impressive images of the endless meadows …
