Creative Railway Embankment Garden

Highlight • Structure

Very lovingly and imaginatively designed embankment.
I had a very good conversation with the creative gardener (a little longer).
You can now rent a small holiday apartment from her.

It's always relaxing to cycle along the former railway line. Even though today was a bridge day, the activity was limited and didn't cause any disruption. The ice cream parlor in Kastellaun is closed, but a small food truck is parked in the parking lot instead. And the snack bar/café "Gleis 3" is open, with a few customers sitting outside …

With the best weather and temperatures of over 20 degrees (in the Hunsrück!), the cycle path was well frequented. The blackthorn bushes are still in bloom, the trees are covered in delicate green, all about a week later than here on the Nahe.

At just under 20 degrees and a light wind, I cycled along one of my favorite routes in the Hunsrück.

Today it was really warm with 30 degrees on the Hunsrück. I was lucky, when I put the bike back in the car in Simmern, there was a heavy shower. Otherwise, thanks to a lot of shade and few inclines, you can ride well on the Schinderhannes bike path even in this weather. There is a large construction site on …

Summer weather with gusts of wind. But easy to drive. Cycle path was quite full today for Hunsrück standards. Tested the track 3 snack bar for the first time. The currywurst was ok, but in my opinion it took too long to be advertised with a large sign. I would eat cake next time, it looked good. It is a …

There was little activity on the bike path; presumably everyone is postponing their rides until the upcoming long weekend? Anyway, it was beautiful, a pleasant 26 degrees, with only a light breeze.

Thunderstorms were announced for the afternoon. That's why I ended the tour on the Schinderhannesradweg that was originally planned to Emmelshausen early and turned back. Just at this point the wind got stronger and some clouds darker. As always, the ride on the Schinderhannesradweg is relaxing.

Went to the Hunsrück for the first time this year. A real spring day in the Hunsrück with temperatures of 16-18 degrees. Relatively few cyclists were on the Schinderhannesradweg for the great weather.
Unfortunately, some corners have been cleared with spruce again.
The graffiti on the bike path near the tunnel is impressive. Putin's war depresses the mood a lot.
