KAISERSTUHL -Waldshut- Bad Sackingen - PRATTELN

KAISERSTUHL -Waldshut- Bad Sackingen - PRATTELN.
50 miles

After a good night rest and breakfast in the morning we went off on our first serious cycling day and it has been hard, but....the sun was shining! A lot hillier than we thought it would be so the pedals have been pushed hard. The route isn't always directly next to the Rhine, but when it is, it's very nice, it also went through forest and cooled us off. The river has a funny green colour at times. Must have to do with the industry alongside. We stop quite often, especially at beautiful locations and have lunch, tea or an ice cream. The town of Bad Sackingen is quite unique. It has the longest covered bridge over the Rhine and is quite a tourist attraction. We have been north and south of the river. South being Switzerland, north Germany. That's the way the route goes. What we find very attractive is the lack of untidiness, rubbish on the road etc. It's really clean looking, especially Switzerland. We hope to do less miles tomorrow and we will leave Switzerland behind us after Basel.
