Short description

This path leads you along the vineyards on the Saale river from Bad Kösen towards Naumburg.

Description

The Weinbergsweg Bad Kösen is an 11.4-kilometer circular route near Naumburg. It runs along a river, past magnificent viewpoints and wildflowers. The Fürst-Heinrich-Stein was created from the old field stones of the trenches during wartime and commemorates the 40th anniversary of the battalion leader Fürst Heinrich Reuß.

In terms of incline and distance, the route is considered moderate. It is excellent for hiking. The route is accessible all year round.

The path partly runs along the Saale cycle path. The wide view in the heights is reserved for hikers. Approximately 200 m need to be walked on a lightly trafficked road.
