Hiking

Two things make this place on Betteleichenweg something special! The Ihlefeld Cross, probably built as a memorial cross. And the extraordinary guide, the Iron Hand!

The Ihlefelder Cross is the oldest field monument in Hainich. It is from the 15th century.

The oldest hall monument in the Hainich, slightly hidden in the forest on the Rennstieg, right next to the "Iron Hand".
