For Ferngucker on the Thuringian Forest a MUST! From Simmersberg at Schnett (780 m above sea level) offers a wonderful "Schauinsland"! On the summit and on a mountain side well-made boards are attached. They explain what can be seen on the horizon and until then. The view extends to well-known Thuringian mountains (Schneekopf, Großer Beerberg, Gleichberge) and far into Franconia (Veste Coburg, Staffelstein, Vierzehnheiligen). You should run around the Simmersbergkopf in order not only to enjoy the panorama from one point. Probably the most beautiful view in southern Thuringia!
