Track and weather conditions
Description of the tracks (road, landscape)
On Friday we offer an afternoon walk of 6/11 km, which brings
you into the city centre.
On Saturday, the first day of the IML Walking Association walk,
there is 25 an 42 km route. The 25 km leads you south to Bronnzell,
then to Eichenzell and the Fasanerie Palace. The extra loop
for the 42 km brings you to the Rhoen Mountains and has some
nice up and down in it. Since 2002 we offer a 'special version'
of the 42 km route on Saturday: There is a bus transfer to
the Rhoen Mountains and the walk starts from out there back
to Fulda. In 2002 we had the first try, starting from the Wasserkuppe,
the highest mountain in the area, and the walkers highly recommended
this route. In the last years we started from some other places
in the mountains.
On Sunday, the second day, there is also a 25 and 42
km which brings you mostly to the region northwest of Fulda.
Part of the route is in the open and a big part, especially
on the 42 km, is in the woods. There is some up and down but
nothing serious. On the way back you will walk through the
city centre of Fulda where you have the opportunity for some
sightseeing.
Beside the walks there are different possibilities to spend
your time here in Fulda: You can visit the city palace, the
palace gardens, the Baroque Cathedral, the Fire Brigade Museum
etc. You can also rent a bike or if you are into water
sports you can rent a Kayak and go canoeing on the Fulda river.
Good care along the road

Entertainment

Weather
You never know what kind of weather you will have in Germany
this part of the year. We had some years with very good weather
but also quite a few rainy days.
Souvenir – award

Taler, an ancient coin that was used in the city of Fulda.
Military groups can earn a special award, a little helmet
that can be attached to the medal.
