Großer Beerberg

Did you know that there were volcanoes in the Thuringian Forest? There was! The Great Beerberg was once one. These are the remnants of it and at 982.9 meters they are still impressively high - the Great Beerberg is the highest elevation of Thuringia. At the top is a rare bog, part of the biosphere reserve Vessertal-Thuringian Forest and so strictly protected that you must not enter it. After all, the Rennsteig is close by and, with a maximum height of 973 meters, is not bad either.

Great place to rest and linger on Thuringia's highest mountain.

At the highest point you have a good view.

Summit in the Thuringian Forest

The Great Beerberg is 983 m the highest mountain in the Thuringian Forest

Very nice view of Suhl from the tower.

A view that you should enjoy.

Always a nice destination to enjoy the view of Suhl.

Highest point in the Thuringian Forest, but summit can not be entered due to nature reserve

Great view over the Thuringian Forest

Great view over Suhl and the entire region. To the right of the viewpoint you can walk a few meters to the highest peak in Thuringia. Then only go higher on the snow head tower.

Beautiful view but often a bit crowded

Nice vantage point with seating and storage. 😃
