Tips
The Gelstertalbahn was a 25 km long railway line between Velmeden and Eichenberg. It was opened in 1915. After the cessation of passenger traffic in 1973, freight traffic was continued on a last short section until 2001. The four-arch viaduct (flood bridge) is about 100 m long.

Worth seeing. The bike path is great and the bridge is a sight to behold.

Who doesn't like to cycle here? Except when there is flooding. 😉
