In search of the perfect Rhön trout: The Rhön trout lives in the headwaters of clean and clear streams and rivers, such as the Fulda. Let's go to Johannisberg, a district of the East Hessian city of Fulda, just before the confluence of the Gieselbach and the Fulda. From here we follow the cycle path R1 (also called Fuldaradweg) which …

This section of the Fulda Cycle Path can be described in a few words: It felt like a great tour through a seemingly endless meadow, lined mainly with willows, beeches and oaks, in which a million warblers were singing happily today.

The car parked in Fulda and off we went on the R1 to Gersfeld. It was really good, bike paths are very well developed, completely paved or paved and always close to the Fulda, away from the streets. After a refreshment with delicious cake, we went back the same way, then it went downhill almost by itself. Real recommendation👍That's what …

If you love your bike, you push it, that was the motto of the first 4 km on day 1 of the Fulda Cycle Path. Because a decent climb awaited us from our night's accommodation to the Wasserkuppe.
