Abandoned railway line between Lückenmühle and Ziemestalbrücke

Highlight • Structure

It's nice to walk on the rails. But in the long run it gets very tiring.

Ziemestal Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

Simply amazing! A great destination for a railway embankment hike from Ziegenrück. 1 viaduct and 3 tunnels and then this bridge! The hike on the railway tracks with the dark tunnels is also great for the kids.
