The eighth stage flows through green meadows from Halle to Bernburg. Even though the ferry unfortunately broke down, help is immediately provided by other cyclists and a group forms to the next ferry a few kilometers further downstream. The paths are a mix of asphalt, gravel and mud, but you make progress

Stage 7 completed, how quickly a week can go by. It remains flat, shortly after Naumburg you leave the valley and come to the plain. It becomes a bit more urban and the cobblestones increase. At the moment the Saale cycle path is closed in two places on this section. In Bad Dürrenberg because of the

Stage 6 of the Saale Cycle Route today leads through the Burgenland district, where it seems that at the end of every second mountain ridge or river bend there is a castle or its remains looking down into the valley. Good paths, it's flat and rolling well, and the weather is playing along too. Great!

The fifth stage is flat and well developed, it rolls along as if by itself. Tired legs will be happy 😌 It goes through the Saale valley, which rises to the left and right and you only climb it once at the Weissenburg. At the top you are rewarded with a beautiful view. Conclusion: Great stage!

So today is stage 4 with the most elevation gain. About 90% on asphalt, it's going well. On the way up to Hohenwarte, the storm that I managed to avoid over the last few days caught me and within 2 minutes it went from grey to "it's pouring down". 20 minutes later I could carry on. The descent to Hohenwarte

Third stage, there are lots of ups and downs again, unfortunately mostly on gravel paths. There is room for improvement here. Good for hiking, but it is a challenge on a bike. But the last few kilometers to Ziegenrück make up for it, very beautiful.

So today is the second stage of the Saale Cycle Path. From Hof on gravel roads and then it gets nice and hilly on very quiet country roads to Blankenstein. The Rennsteig also starts from here, maybe next time. So the motto for the day was: up and down, over and over again 😀. The shortest stage of the

And stage nine is already the end of the Saale Cycle Route. On the last stretch, you can somehow see the influence of the Elbe in the landscape. The last few kilometers along the Saale are brand new asphalt. I hope that this will continue. Apart from the poor condition of some of the cycle paths, there
