    Hiking

    Today the ford is flooded! So be careful if you want to cross the Kronach at this point. It doesn't always work...

    The ford is actually only intended for agricultural vehicles.

    A problem-free river crossing is very easy 100 m downstream at the bridge near Biegenmühle. It's not a big detour.

    What cyclists tend to underestimate at a ford like this is the algae growth on the paved stones:

    >>infernally slippery>Wonderful to wade through with children<<

    as you can get very close to the river.

    Pastor Kneipp would be very happy. 😊😊

    Hiking

    Even today I wouldn't want to cross. The furth is probably already old, judging by the paving.
