The Bockl railway path is super beautiful! It's good that the old bridge was preserved! You feel like a train when you rush through it 😀

The Bocklradweg from Neustadt an der waldnaab to Eslarn. I can only recommend

May 22, 2022,🚂 Bocklradweg 🚴 - Von Eslarn nach Neustadt a.d. Waldnaab 22.05.2022

Today it was time to relax and unwind and I chose the scenic Bockl cycle path from Eslarn to Neustadt a.d.Waldnaab. Family and senior-friendly cycle path on a former railway line through the Oberpfälzer Forest nature park, that's what the description says and therefore just right for me and my bike. At almost 52 km, the "Bockl" is also Bavaria's …

The Bockl cycle path was on the agenda for my Friday's tour today. I was still missing the fourth Zoigl 🍻 fountain ⛲ in Eslarn in my collection until today. Unfortunately there was no Zoigl, that will be another tour.
There's nothing more to say about the tour or the Bockl cycle path, just this much: it's a great cycle …

Very well developed and drivable route and the weather held out with 1 2 short rain showers. After that we strengthened ourselves at the Schinderhannes. An all-round successful tour 👍💪

I parked my car right at the train station. A 24-hour ticket costs €4.50 from Monday to Sunday.

On the spur of the moment, we went cycling to the Upper Palatinate today. It was really worth it, the very best weather, great Bockl bike path and finally an open Zoigl room.

The journey to the Zoigl was hard but also worthwhile with around 80 km, the Zoigl was extremely drinkable and a dream as a thirst quencher.

It was a nice tour if you disregard the bumpy roads in CZ, they shook us quite a bit
In addition, the good Komot Navi always looks like you can see on the route :))
