Stone railway bridge on the Glan–Blies cycle path (Nanzdietschweiler)

Highlight • Bridge

A nice stretch from Glan-Münchweiler with lots of trees, so a shady drive. This cycle path or this section is not paved, but easy to drive on. A detour to the water basin, which is signposted, is worth it.

Nice flat gravel and dirt terrain. I did not use E-bike gears until the big hills(only 2). I use my gears so I am pedal all the time but comfortably.. keep it in HR zone 3.

I particularly like this section of the Glan-Blies cycle path: a lot of the rather slender Glan next to a lot of the railway line from days gone by. Wonderful! At Rehweiler, a particularly beautiful landscape presents itself, which can hardly be made more beautiful.
Of course, the junction to the Glanschleife via the Ritter-Gerin-Weg through the Rechental was not …
