Easy road ride. Great for any fitness level. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Old Railway Bridge on the Nahe Cycle Path

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice and well-developed bike and footpath through the Nahe valley between Schleusingen and Hinternah along the Rennsteigbahn. Unfortunately with a bottleneck under the dilapidated railway bridge.

Bergsee Ratscher

Unfortunately, you can not walk around the mountain lake Ratscher. He is a lake with entry through the campsite where no dogs are allowed.

Alte Schule Ratscher Clubhouse

Highlight • Structure

Here too, the former school has been given a sensible new use. Used as a clubhouse, the renovated building is a real eye-catcher.
