A section of the Steinach river that has been largely straightened to the GDR. The inflow that can be seen in some photos is the outflow of the sewage treatment plant in Heubisch.

Narrow point of the Steinach river. The current is slowed here by large stones. This was necessary due to the straightening of the river at this location.

The Steinach is not that wild anymore. It has probably been straightened out by now. Still nice to cycle on, as it is far from cars. And nice as an alternative to the road through the villages
