At this point you can get to the other side of the river and visit the clodr mill. There is a footbridge in the middle of the meadow. There is also a Zuppinger water wheel to discover at the clodr mill. Follow the Mühlgraben, then you will get there. Children are invited to blickpunkt-elster.de/wettbewerb-flusstagebuch

The old wooden bridge leads over the White Elster and is the only wooden bridge of its kind preserved in Germany. Its construction is comparable to the famous Chapel Bridge on Lake Lucerne. It is a listed building and was voted the most beautiful bridge in Central Germany in 2007.

It's a nice tour. I still recommend a good level of fitness. It often goes up and down.

When looking for a parking space, pay attention to the wooden bridge in the village.

It is protected by a structural limitation for height and width.

Interesting, beautiful area, I was pleasantly surprised. The area had something wild and romantic about it in places and then something very calm and peaceful about it. Accompanied by a lot of silence, the paths were often very "gravel" and rather strenuous to drive. I would like to continue exploring the Elster cycle path.
