Unfortunately, there is no structural evidence of this 8 km long private Wenigentaft-Oechsen railway in Wenigentaft. After all, a sign reminds of the story.

Shortly before Wenigentaft, coming from Buttlar, the Ulstertal cycle path uses a large, blue railway bridge to cross the Ulster. Shortly behind there is a plot of land with a large mill wheel - it looks like electricity is generated here from hydropower.

View over Pferdsdorf to Ulsterberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Horse village / Rhön is a district of the unitary community Unterbreizbach in the Wartburg district in Thuringia and has about 480 inhabitants. Horse village is located south of Unterbreizbach in the Ulster valley. The place was first mentioned in 912. From 1280 to 1450 a noble family named itself after the place, their seat is presumed in the Herrengasse. Pferddsdorf is nestled between Eichberg and Kornberg in the west and Ulsterberg (487.4 m) in the east. The corridors in horse village are used because of the large number of slopes especially as pastures and grassland. Fertile arable land is mainly found in the Ulsteraue north of Pferddsdorf.
Pferddsdorf is located in the Rhön Biosphere Reserve. The Ulsteraue nature reserve extends south of the village.

Located directly on the Ulster Cycle Path, a small vantage point was created on the banks of the Ulster, overlooking the Unterbreizbach potash plant opposite with its characteristic double-headed headframe.

There is a production facility of K + S AG in Unterbreizbach, based in Kassel.
The Unterbreizbach location is one of four locations that have formed the Werra Verbund plant since 1997. The intraday geographic expansion of the Hattorf, Wintershall, Unterbreizbach and Merkers visitor mine is comparable to the urban area of Munich.
K + S says about itself: We support farmers in securing global food security, offer raw materials and solutions that keep industries going, bring flavor to the plate and ensure safety in winter.

Between the state border and Philippsthal, the cycle path in the Ulstertal, which is only gravel here, leads past the impressive spoil dump of the Hattorf potash plant.
