Kinzigtal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

It's nice to have a cycle path next to the motorway, but you don't have to. But the problem remains throughout the Kinzigtal that there are hardly any quiet corners due to the ICE route and the A66.

I used the free afternoon to explore the area a bit. I took the R3 to Wächtersbach and from there a bit along the Kinzig, where I discovered the Engelbert Strauss factory outlet. I'll definitely go there again during the week, this time with a full wallet in my luggage.

The weather held up, the weekend can come
