    Hiking

    The Himmelsberg hiking car park is located directly at the top of the L3147 pass between Hessisch-Lichtenau and Günsterode. From here, you can quickly reach the Tonis Rast viewpoint or take a beautiful circular hike (just under 8 km) through the forest with its numerous animal carvings.
