Kaiser Otto High Trail

Highlight • Trail

Höhenweg from Sangerhausen to Bennungen with fantastic views. I fought my way up from Wallhausen and cycled it to Bennungen, but that is borderline from the surface. Because the battery was empty and the recording of the tour ended at a former (seasonal) stamping point, I was unfortunately only able to mark this point. In any case, the path to Bennungen is recommendable and easy to walk, certainly also easy to drive with a mountain bike.
