The Steigerwald is designated as a landscape protection area (LSG) and FFH area and is mainly made up of beech and oak trees. On the edge of the forest, which is crossed by numerous hiking trails, there are several barracks, such as the Steiger barracks or the Löberfeld barracks. The forest area is cut through in a north-south direction by the federal highway 4, on which the Hubertus restaurant and the former Waldschlösschen are located. The Erfurt Bismarck Tower is located in the northeast part of the forest. (Wikipedia)
