Highlight • Rest Area

Nice rest area with signposts, Luther would have liked it .. The hiking stamp is also interesting, only you don't get it when it's damp 😂

A short stretch of country road leaves Höhnstedt and goes to Egypt.

This parcel has had its strange name since the Middle Ages. Due to its protected location and the comparatively mild climate, Sinti or Roma, which local residents simply called Egyptians, overwinter there.

Today the valley serves as a wine growing region. The nutrient-rich dry soil and the Mediterranean climate provide a suitable basis for the grape. The rainfall around the Mansfeld lakes is similar to that in Madrid; the attentive hiker could even discover cactus-like plants, arugula and figs.

Egypten Vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

The vineyard paradise lies in "Egypt." There, in addition to magnificent views, there are also beautiful vineyard gardens. Why this parcel of land was named after this distant land and is even spelled with an "E" is anyone's guess. Perhaps because in the Middle Ages, traveling people, the "Sons of Egypt," stayed in the protected wine-growing valleys. Or perhaps also because the Mansfeld region is known for its mining waste dumps, which sit like pointed caps on the mountains. These dumps are shaped like pyramids.

Egypten Bench

Highlight • Viewpoint

This small, painted bench stands in the heart of the Egypten wine-growing region. To help you know where you are, a pyramid has been drawn on the backrest.

Seeburg Castle is a Renaissance castle in Seeburg in the Mansfeld-Südharz district, Saxony-Anhalt. The complex dates back to a castle that belonged to the so-called castles of the Hersfeld tithe register; it was the seat of the count family of the same name.
