Rhön: Panoramatour bei Bischofsheim

An alternative panoramic tour over the High Rhön

In the area of the Hochrhön, between Bischofsheim (Oberweißenbrunn) and Fladungen (modified* to 'up to the foot of Stirnberg'), there is for mountain lovers or for people who don’t mind pushing a few meters, with the alternative route, an incomparably beautiful panoramic route through the nature reserve Lange Rhön, an 'open landscape' created by deforestation in the Middle Ages. Today it not only hosts several raised bogs but is also a habitat and refuge for rare animals and plants. Not least for this reason, the Rhön was awarded the title of 'Biosphere Reserve'. (The alternative route is not part of the quality cycling path) *Transformation into a circular route from Bischofsheim   (Start/Finish mistakenly at the peak) Length: circular route = approx. 35 km Duration: approx. 5 h, probably shorter - Descent 8.4% over 4 km (white road towards Ginolfs)  (cloned from route 429827)
