View of Wartburg Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Wartburg towers as a landmark high above the city of Eisenach - 1000 years of German history are reflected in it again. Especially well known is the fact that the castle granted exile to the outlaw Martin Luther, who translated the New Testament here. From here, the view of the castle is rather distant but no less beautiful. But a few kilometers it is still to Eisenach.

Unfortunately it was a bit hazy. In good weather, the view from here on the castle is sensational.

Rennsteig Trailhead Hörschel

Highlight • Trail

The start of the Rennsteig is somewhat hidden on the banks of the Werra. Access is through the courtyard of the small restaurant "Tor zum Rennsteig". This is open daily (except Tuesdays) from 11 a.m. You can stock up on drinks there if you need them - there are no places to buy drinks along the way until you reach Hohe Sonne.

There is also a small guesthouse here. I cannot give a review as I have never slept there myself. More information at: rennsteig-beginn.de.

June 9, 2024,Gravel-Tour: Rennsteig

7h drive. Stretch your legs and soak up the sun. A stopover like this is just right. Look for a hiking car park near the motorway -> Discover komoot -> Gravel tours from your current location -> And off you go. Rennsteig doesn't disappoint. :)
