The "Rhönexpress Bahn-Radweg", which opened in 2019, begins near Altengronau (Hessen) on the state border with Bavaria (Zeitlofs).
The beautiful bike path leads over the Staatsbad Brückenau with a moderate gradient along the Sinn to Wildflecken.

July 19, 2025,Rhönexpress - Bahnradweg - Altengronau nach Bad Brückenau und zurück
Today we cycled along the Rhönexpress Railway Cycle Path. It was a pleasant, easy ride, mostly slightly uphill (max. 3%) to Bad Brückenau, and mostly downhill on the way back. It's easy to park at the natural pool in Altengronau and start from there. Next time we'll pack our swimwear 🙃
