Werratal Cliffs Near Frankenroda and Falken

Highlight • Gorge

When I reached the cliffs I could hardly believe what I was seeing. There they stood, towering, mighty and impressive, and it was as if the cycle path had forced its way right through these ancient rocks. On one side of the path the Werra, flowing calmly and serenely, and on the other side these huge cliffs that seemed almost alive in the morning sun.

It was an amazing sight and a bit like cycling through a huge open-air museum. The sun played with the light and shadow on the rocks and I couldn't help but keep stopping to enjoy the view. The cliffs seemed to tell stories from long ago and I felt like a small part of that long history.

The cycle path itself was a joy to ride. It was well maintained and took me through a landscape that seemed somehow magical. At times I was in the shadow of the cliffs, at times in the sunshine on the banks of the Werra. There was always something new to see and I enjoyed every minute of this ride.

Cycle Path Along the Cliffs

Highlight • Cycleway

It's very impressive to cycle right next to the cliffs. The cycle path is in good condition, but quite narrow.

Stone Arch Bridges on the Heyerode–Langula Rail Trail

Highlight • Bridge

Here you will find three old stone bridges in the middle of the forest, which remind you of the time when trains were still rolling between Langula and Heyerode. The old railway line has been turned into a beautiful bike path here.
