March 6, 2024,Auf und neben vergessenen Gleisen - unterwegs an der Kanonenbahn 🚂🥾🌥️

Long planned and finally implemented. Today we went to the north-west of Thuringia on the Kanonenbahn cycle path. The aim was to explore part of the almost 32 km long path with its five railway tunnels and some viaducts. 🏁 In addition to hiking and cycling, the Küllstedt - Lengenfeld - Geismar section can also be explored by trolley.
