April 26, 2026, View of the Limestone Cliffs from the Werra Valley Cycle Path

Very beautiful view of the, I think, Ebenauer Köpfe. There is also an official path leading up to the cliffs and from there you also have a wonderful view. BUT BE CAREFUL: There is nothing fenced off up there. This means if you go too far forward, every step could be your last.

The Werra Bridge in Creuzburg, together with the Liborius Chapel on the eastern bank, forms one of the town's landmarks. The bridge is the oldest surviving natural stone bridge in the eastern German states and the oldest surviving bridge along the entire course of the Werra River. This ensemble makes for a great photo opportunity in almost any weather.

The bridge is a great place to take a break. There are also seating areas. There's also parking on both sides. In addition to hiking trails, the Werra Valley Cycle Route and the Hercules Wartburg Cycle Route also run here.

The old Werra Bridge is one of the oldest bridges in Germany, its origins dating back to the 13th century.

A bicycle bridge over the Werra is more than just a crossing - it is an invitation to experience the beauty of the landscape from a new perspective.
