From this bench, you can enjoy a nice view of the vehicles on the A71. You can also hear the repetitive rumbling as a vehicle drives over the speed bump at the edge of the Wilde Gera viaduct. If you try to match one of the sounds to a vehicle, you'll notice that it only reaches you with a delay of about two seconds.

If you now tell me that a sound wave travels 335 meters in air in one second, meaning the speed bump is about 650 meters from the bench, then I agree with you.

Bench next to the hiking trail, a small staircase leads up in the morning to a nice sunny spot with a view of the A71 viaduct 😉

Hiking

A highlight of a different kind.😅 It's quite nice to walk across the highway without having to leave the forest.😋
