    The Hofteich, which is often used as a hiking destination, is one of the historical surroundings of Belrieth.
    A homestead stood here until 1988, which fell victim to a political decision from GDR times.
    Only the big barn was saved from loss.
    It was implemented and can be admired today in the open-air museum Kloster Veßra.

      You're used to seeing a summit cross from afar. That's not the case here. A good 10 meters before the cross, you'll hear a surprised "ahh!"
      But it's definitely a good place to rest! It's nice that there are plenty of rest stops all around.
