It's a good fit; something was thoughtfully built here.
And not a concrete block.

Saale River Trail

Highlight • Trail

It is wonderful to hike along the Saale, between the old willows (true giants) it is an experience. From Bad Dürenberg to the Saale bridge Kleinkorbeta it is about 14 kilometers. 🤗

June 9, 2025,Großkorbetha zur Solestadt Bad Dürrenberg an der Saale entlang

An easy route that anyone can walk. The Gradiewerk (graduate work), at 636 meters long, in Bad Dürrenberg is quite impressive. The adjacent park is a delight for young and old. Restaurants and snack bars offer refreshments to satisfy hunger and thirst.

February 26, 2026,Von Bad Dürrenberg nach Süden an der Saale entlang

Every few years I go to Bad Dürrenberg because I enjoy hiking along the Saale River and find the saltworks very impressive. Unfortunately, many trees along the Saale are dead, and in some sections the path was closed due to the risk of falling trees. I went anyway because the detour would have been too long and uninteresting. It's always …

Thanks to the Komoot hiking friend Heidrun, who hiked from Bad Dürrenberg through the floodplain landscape of the Saale to Großkorbetha and back on 26.02.26, I became aware of this beautiful section of the Saale river and saved this hike! Today was the day, with excellent hiking weather, we could head for the parking lot in the center of Großkorbetha, …

August 9, 2024,Rund um Bad Dürrenberg + Landesgartenschau 🌺🌻

Today we went to Bad Dürrenberg for the State Garden Show. Since it would have been a bit short for one tour, we added a small loop along the Saale.
I then forgot to pause the tour, so it was a bit of a criss-cross at the end🙈
You can recommend both, the loop along the Saale is nice and …

March 26, 2024,Bad Dürrenberg - Kleinkorbetha - Gradierwerk B. Dürrenberg 🔄

Tour from the train station, arrived and departed from/to Leipzig by regional train, convenient thanks to the D ticket and every half hour.
After reaching the Saale, the route continues south through meadows and orchards to Kleinkorbetha through nature. It's pleasant to walk on the natural paths and through the grass. After crossing the Saale, the path leads back to …

May 11, 2024,🚶🏻‍♀️Wanderung Bad Dürrenberg

Today we set off shortly after 9am in Bad Dürrenberg. I had chosen a tour on komoot that I wanted to hike today. The weather was perfect, not too warm and the sun was often behind fine strips of clouds, so that it was bearable in the open plain without shade. There was also a pleasantly fresh wind...the path initially …
