Gera River Floodplain

Highlight • River

Here, the Free State of Thuringia was able to create more space for the river and buy land. An island was created and two rivers. Now the river can create bank edges according to its natural dynamics, which enable the kingfisher to breed. Really nice to see. For children, I recommend the river discovery competition: blickpunkt-geraue.de!

It flows peacefully and it's fun to just look at the water.

This gravel path is a nice alternative to the original Gera cycle path between Elxleben and Walschleben (which has many bumps). You drive nicely alongside the Gera dike, and at the end of the path there is a romantic pond.

Small bench at the lake to rest, be careful the jetty is rotten!
