    This path is my endurance route and the view is always wonderful 🏃‍♀️. Also very suitable for walks with kids to switch off for a while 🌞

      The Thuringian Forest is one to 982.9 m above sea level. NHN high (Großer Beerberg) and a good 1000 square kilometer large wooded low mountain range in the Free State of Thuringia in Germany.

      In a narrower sense, this only refers to the approximately 70 kilometer long and 20 kilometer wide ridge mountain range between the Werra Valley near Eisenach and the Schleuse and Wohlrose valleys southeast of Ilmenau.

      The Thuringian Slate Mountains are clearly separated from this topographically and geologically as a southeastern continuation, but in common parlance they are often viewed as part of the Thuringian Forest and are also crossed by the Rennsteig ridge path.

      Together with the Slate Mountains, the Franconian Forest and the Fichtel Mountains, the Thuringian Forest forms the Thuringian-Franconian low mountain range from the Werra to the Czech border.

      The mountain range is protected as a whole as the Thuringian Forest Nature Park; the more strictly protected core area is the Thuringian Forest Biosphere Reserve.

        An unobstructed view of the Thuringian Forest. This view is worth enjoying.
