Turn your everydays life into small adventures. Thats what we did last weekend. A train ride which felt like going back in time in combination with a short walk through beautiful landscape.
Been started at Erfurt main station, soon a modern hub within the ICE network, and traveling over more and more tight and tiny tracks deeper into Thuringian forest, we ended at the 1922 built “Oberweissbacher Bergbahn” just to continue our journey on a wide (1,80m) but steep track, towed by a cable. Upon the mountain, the ride continued in another old electrical train vehicle on the level track.
After a short walk we ended on “Meuselbacher Kuppe” for having lunch.
Definately worth a trip and I think we will do it again, with a larger hiking part then. This part was shorter this time due to some smaller kids traveling with us.

Jawoll, schöne Ausflugs-Idee, das merke ich mir mal für die anstehenden Wochenenden vor! Zur Bergbahn habe ich immer schon geschielt auf den Radtouren durch’s Schwarzatal, sieht schon klasse aus. Lässt sich bestimmt auch eine nette Runde über die Kuppe z.B. nach Mellenbach wieder runter laufen, ich würde am liebsten gleich aufbrechen ;-)
