Also well-suited for cyclists. Dismounting is not necessary. However, riding without lights is almost blind for the first few meters, as your eyes need time to adjust to the sudden darkness.

A walk around the pond offers several different perspectives 👀 The 3 Schwäne beer garden occasionally serves wood-fired pizza (more information on the hotel's website www.dreischwaene.de)

The Meuschkensmühle is a lovingly restored mill in the heart of the Mühltal valley, surrounded by forest, water, and hiking trails. Once a working mill, it is now a cozy destination with a restaurant, petting zoo, and riding stables.

The Lummersche Backhaus consists of the restaurant in the building and the bridge café on the Untermhäuser Bridge. You can sit and enjoy your meal in the historic building or on the bridge.

Built by the Gera beautification society in 1897. Unfortunately, now only a lost place.

The inn is located on a high road. A good hiking trail. It's easily accessible from the train, for example, from Kraftsdorf.
