The southernmost arch of the bridge was destroyed by the flood in June 2021. The bridge can therefore not be used. A few meters further downstream there is a replacement bridge (as of June 2022)

Beautiful tour in great weather. We started in Dernau along the Ahr to Bruck and back again. Collected many new impressions and 👀sights.. Wonderful stay for a ☕️☕️ in the Marienthal monastery.. The route was quite easy to ride except for a climb in the vineyards🫐🫐, which was quite a challenge 🥵. It was a very nice Sunday tour.
