Imposing stone bridge on the largely closed Probstzella - Neuhaus / Rennweg railway line. Today only the section from Ernstthal am Rennsteig to Neuhaus am Rennweg is in operation.Franconian Forest and Thuringian Forest were and are challenging areas for the construction of railway lines. The bike tour described also leads through the elongated Tettau valley, where you can still see a few remains of the track and overgrown railway embankments on the Pressig - Tettau route.Information about the mentioned railway lines can be found here:
