September 9, 2023,Von Melsungen nach Rotenburg an der Fulda

Beautiful bike tour with Haydau Monastery as a stopover.
The bicycle ferry over the Fulda near Beiseförth is highly recommended, but it is also tiring

The plan was actually to ride to Bebra and then back on the Cantus. Instead, we rode, or rather pushed, a bit through Rotenburg. There was a festival or a flea market there, or maybe both. The pedestrian zone was completely packed, so you can't ride there. Then we took a leisurely ride back on the Cantus. That was enough …

July 17, 2022,Von Rotenburg an der Fulda nach Melsungen und zurück

Today we were on the Fuldaradweg. The start was in Rotenburg. We drove comfortably down the Fulda to Melsungen. There we took a longer break at the market. One half-timbered house stands next to the other around the market square and in the side streets. Along the approx. 30 km long route we passed at least 5 "village" festivals. Among …
