Albrechtsgraben Valley Cycle Path and A71 Viaduct

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very scenic route through a shady valley between forest, meadow and babbling brook. In contrast to this is the motorway bridge, which spans the valley and is also architecturally very successful. The route is best enjoyed going downhill.
