ポッティガのおすすめランニングルート

The Rennsteig Trail ends at this bridge—the border between Thuringia and Bavaria. Here, the pebbles collected from the Werra in Hörschel are transferred to the Selbitz River.

The Selbitzplatz in Blankenstein is an important hiking base and is often referred to as the "hub of hiking." Several well-known long-distance hiking trails converge here, including the Rennsteig, the Kammweg, the Frankenweg, and the Franconian Mountain Trail. A special highlight at the Selbitzplatz is the Rennsteigschuh (Rennsteig Shoe) – an oversized sculpture in the shape of a hiking boot with an integrated slide. This unique play structure was specially developed for the Rennsteig and offers young hikers a great opportunity to climb and play.

...numerous stations, how to open them, unfortunately, no idea...

A particularly friendly operator! From the campsite area you have the best view of the Treppelesfelsen.

The end or beginning of the Rennsteig

The small Blankenstein (Saale) train station is ideal for Rennsteig hikers. Unfortunately, the route does not continue all the way to Bavaria.

great campsite (SB 💭💭)

The Hirschsprung, high above the Höllental, offers a wonderful view of the valley and the surrounding area. It can be reached on foot via various hiking trails.
