The border road leads to Bleßberg and reminds by rows of stones along the way

There are three ways to get to Blessberg from Siegmundsburg:
1. The Border Trail, which is very nice for hikers or mountain bikers, as it is mostly a hiking trail.
2. The paved road that runs south of the ridge to Blessberg is interesting for winter hikers and regular cyclists.
3. A third option is a forest path north of the ridge.

There are three markers on the Border Trail:
1. The Werra Castle Trail, with a blue square on a white background.
2. The Franconian Trail, with a red square on a white background.
3. The Way of St. James Erfurt-Coburg, with a yellow shell on a blue background.

The historic border trail leads from the Werra spring at Siegmundsburg on its 4 km long route directly through the forest to the Blessberg, past the old landmarks, the Stone Witnesses of history have been.
