Saale River at Saalfeld

Highlight • River

The Saale is always an eye-catcher. Most of it is simply beautiful in its natural state.

This section of the Saale cycle path through Saalfeld is, in my opinion, the most beautiful. There are numerous places for a cozy break, where you can let your eyes wander or just listen to the roar of the Saale.

Nice play opportunity for children. Maybe with bathing shoes.
Others also go with hiking boots and gaiters (komoot.de/tour/897261757?ref=atd)
