シュタイナウアンデアシュトラーセでののおすすめツーリングルート

Storks can often be observed!

Visible from afar, Monte Kali – the spoil heap of the Neuhof potash mine – rises as an imposing landmark in the landscape. It now contains more than 125 million tons of spoil. From every direction, the hill makes for a fantastic photo opportunity. https://www.kpluss.com/de-de/ueber-ks/standorte/europa/neuhof-ellers/monte-kali/index.html https://www.kpluss.com/de-de/ueber-ks/standorte/europa/neuhof-ellers/monte-kali/index.html

There are some interesting things to discover here.

There is a good cycle path here. I personally prefer the southern cycle path along the reservoir.

The reservoir was built between 1976 and 1979 to prevent flooding and inundation in the Kinzig valley.

A heartfelt thank you to those who so lovingly designed this rest area! It gave me shelter from the constant rain today.

Birdwatchers, hikers, cyclists, nature lovers, anglers and pedal boaters will all get their money's worth here.

The Kinzig is a river approximately 86 kilometers long. It rises in Sterbfritz, flows southwest through the Main-Kinzig district of Hesse, and flows into the Main from the right in Hanau. The Kinzig is a second-order river in low mountain ranges. It overcomes an elevation of 301 meters and has a bed gradient of 3.5 per thousand. The Kinzig's catchment area covers 1,058 square kilometers, and the calculated mean discharge (MQ) at the mouth of the Kinzig is 10.97 cubic meters per second. The Kinzig was first documented in 796 as "iuxta fluvium Kincihen." In 815, the name was written as "Chinzicha," around 900 as "Kincicha"/"Kinzicham," in 1364 as "Kinzige," in 1584 as "Kintzig," in 1607 as "Bintz," in 1681 as "Kintz," in 1716 as "Kins," in 1769 as "Kinzing," and in 1802 as "Kinzig." In the river's headwaters, there was the now-defunct village of Kinzig, mentioned in 815 as "Chirizichheimero." The village and river were often confused by monastery scribes at that time with "Chizzicha" (now Bad Kissingen), both of which were described as being located in the Saalegau. The name presumably derives from the ancient Celtic *ku̯anti̯o- meaning "flat hill, valley." The name was therefore derived from the mountainous region from which the Kinzig flows. Source: Wikipedia
