Zuckerbahn Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Suitable for racing bikes throughout, but very dirty and narrow in the wooded areas. But doable.

Drinking Water at the Former Osterfeld Train Station

Highlight • Rest Area

The water has a strange taste and is lukewarm. This doesn't improve if you tap a few liters and throw them away. I suspect that the supply line is not buried deep enough or that the tap allows the water to be heated. Legionella bacteria form at temperatures above 20 degrees and that's why I'm going to avoid the tap. There is a cemetery at the entrance to Haardorf. You're better off with fresh drinking water there. Everyone should think for themselves whether they want to tap from the blue column.

Zeitz–Camburg Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Nice bike path. Basically everything has already been said, but be careful: When the sun is low, coming from the direction of Schkölen, you cannot always see everything that is on the flat.

The Zuckerbahn

Highlight • Cycleway

Be careful here, the sign points towards the gravel slope. The bike path continues on the paved path. Unfortunately, nothing is signposted until Camburg.

Zuckerbahn Cycle Path (Zeitz–Camburg)

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This bike path connects the Elster and the Saale valley and uses the route of the old "Zuckerbahn" from Zeitz to Camburg. In the past, coal and, as the name suggests, sugar were transported, but since 1999 the line has been shut down and is gradually being rebuilt into a cycle path. As usual on a railway track, you drive here wonderfully quiet and far away from the traffic, only occasional bollards interrupt the otherwise enjoyable ride. If you want, you'll find countless sights along the way.
