Rest and Grill Hut Wenigenlupnitz

Highlight • Mountain Hut

It's worth resting here. If you have a bit of wood, a lighter and a grill with you, this is a great place to do it. Otherwise, plan accordingly. A little highlight for everyone in the family 👌🏻

April 27, 2025,EISEANACH - HÖRSELBERG UND ZURÜCK

A relaxed round, and at the halfway point, a delicious beer with bratwurst and a roasted meat on the Hörselberg. The fantastic view of the Inselsberg in sunshine was complimentary.

Today is the 1st anniversary of the death of my longtime cycling friend Hartmut (Mäxer) Gutsche. And this was one of his favorite tours

I was actually exhausted today, but I still went for my after-work ride.

A bit more relaxed, only a 21-inch tire but with 2.5 kg of additional weight on the bike.

Small detour via Burla, between Sättelstädt and Hastrungsfelde 🚧Construction site, freshly tarred.
