If you are looking for peace and quiet, you will find it in the Elstertal between Elsterberg and Barthmühle train station. The White Elster flows contemplatively in her bed, then again with a slight temper, because her stones have been "placed" in the bed😉. This hike was a haven of peace for me after a strenuous week at work!

A beautiful, romantic section of river that flows through the Steinicht nature reserve.

The wild White Elster, I love it, we love hiking here, very idyllic and wildly romantic.
