We started our tour in fog, but then the sun gradually came through. It was a very beautiful hiking trail along the Rennsteig and also through a beautiful forest. The Werraquelle is recommended.
From the tower building we had a beautiful view of Thuringia. It was a great experience for our grandchildren.
