Cycle Path Between Oßmannstedt and Oberroßla

A good part of this section is over the bike path through fields, where the wind can blow properly. The street is lined with fruit trees, with cherry trees in particular being remembered.

Ilm Floodplain

Highlight • Natural

Around Ulrichshalben there is a very beautiful Ilmaue; it could be mentioned as a classic floodplain with meadows, bushes and trees. Yes, that's what it looks like on the rivers with their valleys if you give the river space.

Wasserburg Niederroßla is unfortunately only open on Sundays, the Wielandgut is a nice cultural stop with a small, fine, free exhibition 👍, and on the weekends be sure to head to the mill café, very cozy, very regional!!

The castle garden is open. Unfortunately there is no restaurant, but right next door there is a private agricultural museum with items from the GDR era. Totally interesting …
