May 24, 2024,4. Etappe Blankenheim - Eisenach

I followed the R15 to Kleinensee. Then I headed towards Gerstungen and followed the Werratal cycle path. This was very wet and muddy in places with lots of puddles. From Hörschel I continued on the D4 Mittelland route. After Hörschel it was a short, steep climb and then a descent again - then you could already see the Wartburg.
