This is probably the only section on the Saaletal cycle path between Hammelburg and Gemünden, which has an almost “trail character” over a short distance. But it can still be done with a normal bike.

Trettstein Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Exceptional: The Tretstein waterfall (also Trettstein waterfall) emerges from the sandstone of the Spessart and there are very idyllic paths around it.

The Jossa–Wildflecken railway line, also known as the Sinntalbahn, was a branch line in Hesse and Bavaria. It branched off from the Flieden–Gemünden railway line in Jossa and ran through the Sinntal via Altengronau and Bad Brückenau to Wildflecken. The building permit for the line was granted on March 8, 1888, so that construction work could begin on July 1, 1890. The line was opened on October 9, 1891, and stops along the way began on October 15, 1891. Passenger traffic, which had always been of secondary importance, declined sharply due to competition from private transport. After the German Federal Railway stopped weekend traffic on the line with the 1982 summer timetable and no longer served the Bad Brückenau–Wildflecken section except for a single pair of trains, it stopped passenger traffic on the line completely on May 27, 1988. The last freight train traveled the route on February 4, 2002. On June 26, 2002, the Bad Brückenau-Wildflecken section of the route had to be closed due to a dam slide near the Römershag stop, and the entire route was closed on October 17, 2002. Until the entire route was finally closed by the Federal Railway Authority on March 31, 2005, special trips by railway associations continued. Finally, at the end of 2009, DB Netz submitted an application to dismantle the route. The actual dismantling of the tracks finally took place in October 2016. The dismantling of the tracks began in 2017. The Rhönexpress rail cycle path, which was partially built on the route of the Sinntalbahn, was opened on June 28, 2019. The first section, Zeitlofs - Bad Brückenau-Römershag, was opened on December 1, 2018.

where the Thulba reaches the eastern outskirts of Oberthulba. Its water flow is reinforced there by the Lauter, which is about 9.1 km long and coming from the left. Below the Reithermühle northwest of Thulba (district of Oberthulba), the Heeggraben and the Laibach flow in from the right and the (temporarily dry) Heinergraben at a small lake with a campsite. Below the Obere Erthals-Mühle, it is reached on the left-hand side by the Rumbach, which runs parallel at the end. South of Obererthal (district of Hammelburg), the Mühlgraben, which flows back into the Thulba at the Herberts-Mühle near Untererthal (Hammelburg), branches off, into which the Elsengraben in turn flows. Below the Kessenmühle, the Thulba flows into the Franconian Saale near the sewage treatment plant in the west of Hammelburg.
