Covered Bridge on the Eselradweg

Highlight • Bridge

This is not the Kunitzer Hausbrücke 🙈
This bridge is located in the old railway area between Bürgel and Graitschen, is also beautiful, but much smaller than the Hausbrücke

Model of the Kunitzer Hausbrücke

Highlight • Bridge

The wooden bridge is a smaller version of the 1945 destroyed and in 2012 again built Kunitz Hausbrücke. Truly idyllically situated in the countryside, the bridge spans the tracks.

Rail trail between Graitschen and Bürgel

Highlight • Cycleway

A nice bike path (not paved) on a former railway line. Cool in summer, sometimes nice and slippery in autumn / winter. The old and lovingly restored train station in Graitschen still bears witness to a little history.
