Saale Cycle Route: Schönburg to Naumburg

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Basically Andreas is right, but there is the section from the height "Neue Welt" to Felsenkeller and from autumn to spring you have to reckon with leaves, branches and earth on the bike path.

The castle is in a very beautiful location. Directly on the Saale with a magnificent view towards Naumburg, Goseck. Catering is also available and invites you to linger.

Drive home along the Saale. Short and sweet. Over the golden hooves it went up to the beautiful view.

Slept badly, woke up way too early, but still felt good. Wasted some time and then comfortably at work.

After a nice long weekend we went back to work today. Since I was on time, I drove along the Saale and Unstrut via Großjena and Rossbach to Naumburg. I bypassed the construction site at the flower ground. It was a nice ride and quiet from the traffic.

The scrap was taken out of the water at the rowing club. The Saale is currently quite empty, so the river bed can be cleaned.
