    Hiking

    At 978 meters, the Schneekopf is the second highest elevation in Thuringia after the Großer Beerberg (983 meters). From here you can enjoy magnificent views all around. Visiting the top of the tower is the only way to exceed 1,000 meters in the Thuringian Forest.

    Hiking

    Here is a nice hut to stop off. Very good food at reasonable prices. (only open until 17:00 from autumn)
