A great feeling to drive through the Milseburgtunnel. In summer it is a very nice refreshment. It also houses bats. From November to mid-April the tunnel is closed, but there is a four-kilometer bypass. The environmentally friendly lighting with sodium vapor lamps is also very nice.

In Schenklengsfeld I looked at the old tree.
It's not far to Bad Hersfeld.
At Sorga's the pseudo-giant is standing with his new shoes and Emma is also ready to leave

From Fulda it's 22 km uphill, but of course moderate as it's on an old railway line. Then you come to the Milseburg tunnel, the longest bicycle tunnel in Germany, 1172m. Nicely cool.
