그로스브라이텐바흐 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

It lies on the path from Gehren to Langen Berg. There is a nice rest area opposite.

A wonderful idea from the Thuringian Forest Nature Park Association. Thank you to the staff and the fantastic execution!

Just before Ilmenau, on the section of the Ilm Cycle Path along the former Langewiesen railway line, this rest area with a covered picnic hut invites you to take a relaxing break. Benches and a table are available here – ideal for a quick snack in the shade before heading into town. A perfect stopover for cyclists and hikers looking to enjoy the last few meters to Ilmenau.

Nice rest stop. 😄

Beautiful view of Gehren and the ICE bridge

Freight trains avoid this route because it's too steep. Therefore, it's not profitable.

These fascinating geological formations, also known as scours, are a special feature of this river. Their formation is due to an erosive process caused by the turbulent flow of the water and the sedimentary material it carries. Irregularities in the riverbed, such as small depressions, bumps, or harder rock inclusions, can cause the water to swirl. These initial eddies create a rotating water movement with increased flow velocity and a grinding effect directly on the riverbed.

Steady, slightly uphill - well paved - virtually car-free - possibly forestry work
