Train stations
There is a train station in Oßmannstedt. That platform unfortunately is too low for low-floor trains. Please request the mobile ramp from the train staff in advance. The Ilmtal-Radweg does not directly pass the train station Oßmannstedt. But it´s very close to it, about 400 meter. There is no direction sign from the train station to the Ilmtal-Radweg. Just follow the main road downwards into the village and you will cross the Ilmtal-Radweg. The platforms at the train station in Bad Sulza are accessible via a ramp without steps. The platform heights are adapted to low-floor trains.

Information for sharing the path
Usually the cycling path runs on trails off motor traffic (biking, hiking and horse trails separately), on farm and forest roads and on roads with a little traffic, especially in small villages. Sometimes there are secured and unsecured crossings of roads with motor traffic, e.g. an unsecured crossing at "Zur Poche", there you have to cross a bigger main road B87 and once more in the village of Darnstedt an unsecured crossing is necessary.
