Schusterstein Tunnel Chemnitztalradweg

The Schusterstein tunnel was built between 1900 and 1902 as part of the construction of the Chemnitz Küchwald - Wechselburg railway line. It passes under part of the Schusterstein massif, thanks to the beautiful meander (loop) of the Chemnitz.
Today, with its bridge - tunnel - bridge combination, it has been one of the most beautiful spots on the Chemnitz Valley Cycle Path after the renovation in 2015-2016.

A nice tunnel, however, is a little poorly lit.

Nice tunnel, unfortunately it is only poorly lit.

Chemnitz Valley Cycle Path tunnel

Wonderful bike path simply beautiful

Very nice tunnel. Before and after the tunnel you have a beautiful landscape.

A highlight of the Chemnitz Valley Cycle Path is undoubtedly the old railway tunnel at the Chemnitz loop near Auerswalde.

Great bike path, lots of impressions and the tunnel, great.

The tunnel is a listed building and that's where the bats live

The Chemnitz Valley Cycle Path is beautiful in every season, but especially in summer you can ride (almost) always in the shade, even when it's very hot.

Great family-friendly bike path from the Schweizerthal to Chemnitz and back. Our kids (5 and 4) have mastered it. Approx. 34 km there and back
