One of the largest yew forests in Germany is located on the western slope of the Neuberg - the oldest yew trees are over 800 years old. An adventure trail leads through this rare and unspoilt yew forest up to the “Rhönpaulus” cave.

Hiking

A beautifully designed and entertaining adventure trail to the robber Rhön Paulus. I'm sure it will be great fun for families with children. Even I, as an adult hiking alone, enjoyed it.
