    Hiking

    The highest point in Thuringia is the Great Beerberg. It is 983 meters high. A little below the summit there is a viewing platform that offers a great view over the Thuringian Forest.

    Hiking

    It's not a "real" peak, but at 982.9 meters it is the highest point in the Thuringian Forest.

    Until the end of the 1980s, during the GDR era, there was a viewing tower right on the summit. This has now been torn down because access to the summit is no longer permitted. The background is that one of the last rainfed bogs in the Thuringian Forest lies at the summit and is particularly protected as a nature reserve.

    Hiking

    The Great Beerberg is the highest mountain in the Thuringian Forest. Also a top destination for inexperienced hikers, as it can be reached easily and conveniently from the Suhler Hütte. Plänckner's view is breathtaking. A small beautiful path finally leads up to the summit moor.
