Today we took advantage of the beautiful sunny weather 🌞🌞🌞 and hiked the premium hiking trail "Der Meininger" completely for the first time. We also hiked the start and end point of the circular hiking trail at the arched bridge in the castle park, so our tour is a little longer than the official 10.7 km.
Counter-clockwise we went to …

Today we did the special tour “Der Meininger” at the end of the Rhön discovery weekend. Nice round, moderate climbs, beautiful views of Meiningen.

Why wander into the distance when ... a beautiful premium hiking trail is so close. Autumn showed itself once again from its mild golden side and invited to enjoy the last rays of sunshine. Colors are an ephemeral gift of nature.

September 8, 2024,Der Meininger

A beautiful circuit on the west side of Meiningen, marked with the red "M". You sometimes have beautiful views of different sides of Meiningen. The Prinz Ernst Platz is very idyllic, apart from the dead spruce trees. And don't forget the Goetzhöhle. It's worth a visit.
