June 5, 2026, Blutiger Schreiber Covered Bridge

A charming wooden bridge with an extraordinary name: The „Blutiger Schreiber“ bridge leads you idyllically over the water and fits perfectly into the tranquil nature of the Triebtal.

Surrounded by dense greenery and rugged rock formations, an almost mystical atmosphere arises here 🌳✨. The name perfectly matches the wild romantic character of this place and leaves room for imagination and stories.

The imposing dam of the Pöhl dam is a real highlight and impresses both from above and below 💪. When crossing it, a wide, almost endless view opens up over the lake, while on the other side the valley drops deep down – a great contrast!

I always take a short break here when I'm out on my racing bike and read something in the book that's lying here. Sometimes it's quite interesting.

Very relaxing cycle path and pleasant even on very hot days as there are many shady sections.

In the meantime, a barrier-free, albeit quite steep, path has been created, so that the bike no longer has to be carried.

During the summer months (until the end of September), a small but charming café in the church park is open on Saturdays and Sundays between 2 and 5 p.m., weather permitting. It also serves delicious homemade cakes, fries, and other specialties – run entirely by volunteers.
