After following Hartensteiner Straße in Mitteldorf for a while, the route turns onto the former railroad embankment. In the light shade of large trees, you can pedal towards Beutha with a beautiful view. An area nature monument for butterflies marks the end of this section of the trail. You are invited to take a detour into the parish forest via field paths and a dirt road, from the edge of which there is a wonderful view of the district of Beutha. The circular tour then leads through the center of Beutha and follows a section of the supra-regional cycle path through the Beuthenbach forest. Where settlement was abandoned hundreds of years ago for unknown reasons (deserted Mark Wittendorf), you can now see the impressive dam wall of a rainwater retention basin. From here, the path climbs steeply once again along the fruit tree-lined Alte Stollberger Straße/ Alte Neuwieser Straße before returning to the starting point of the field bike circuit." language: "en" type: "SportsActivityLocation" image: "https://dam.destination.one/2908402/f0553cb449be1ca0385b331f25bcdff3c5be3bedd31d01c111be688297bf3a0d/.jpg" breadcrumb: "Root > Home > Special > Destination.Data Details > Tour" --- GPX Share Stollberg field bike tour ========================= - 14.81 km long - Round trip - Difficulty: medium - Condition: medium - Great panorama - Cycling - 1:04 h - 14.81 km - 148 m - 148 m - 422 m - 528 m - 106 m - - Start: Zwickauer Straße/ corner of Weststraße - Destination: Zwickauer Straße/ corner of Weststraße The Stollberger Feldradrunde is characterized by wide views of the open countryside.
