Tourism

• On the section between Lauenförde and Amelith there are two Grabungsstellen as well as the Hutewald Trail (Hutewaldpfad).
• The section between Uslar and Hardegsen was popular with motorcyclists because it ran over the winding and forested mountain road known as the Bollert which also had many straight sections before and after it, but now only parts remain as local roads. The Bollert section of the B241 has now been moved and widened to three lanes between Volpriehausen and Ellierode, improving road capacity and comfort, but making it less attractive to bikers. This work was completed in 2011.
