ズールの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ20

The memorial stone commemorates Hugo Bästlein, a prominent figure in German consumer cooperatives. Directly adjacent to it, a small shelter invites you to rest—ideal for a break with a view of the Thuringian Forest.

A great hike with many sights and wonderful nature👍

The Lange Bahn mountain hut is located in the middle of the forest at the end of the archaeological hiking trail and is a nice place to stop on a hike. Here you can get simple food and drinks. The hiking hut is open on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can find more information and the menu at https://lange-bahn.de/.

a really nice place to rest

Memorial stone with a small shelter right on the side of the road ⚒️

Attention the hut is only open on Sundays

The Suhler Hütte should actually have a gastronomic offer, but unfortunately it looks very closed.

Although the Adlersberg, at 849.9 m, is lower than some of its northern neighbours (its "secondary" peaks Neuhäuser Hügel (890.6 m), Großer Eisenberg (907.4 m), Großer Finsterberg (944.1 m), Schneekopf (978 m), Großer Beerberg (982.9 m)), it clearly towers over all the mountains to the south by 200 to 300 m. The Adlersberg massif with its various (secondary) peaks has the shape of a horseshoe open to the south, within which the south-flowing Erle rises at the saddle between the Großer Erleshügel and Neuhäuser Hügel at a height of almost 780 m. To the north, the Adlersberg goes almost directly into the slightly higher Schüßlers Höhe (859 m) and, after a moderately deep valley, into the even higher Neuhäuser Hügel at 891 m, to the west of which follows the Große Erleshügel (839 m), which goes south into the Beerberg (809 m), which is finally joined further south by the Große Dröhberg (approx. 730 m) - each with gap depths of less than 30 m. The Adlersberg massif is bordered to the north by a series of deeper valleys (Schollengrund, Pfanntal, upper Galgental), which go north into the valley of the Lauter tributary Lange Lauter, which flows to Suhl, behind which lie the two highest mountains in Thuringia, the Großer Beerberg (983 m) and the Schneekopf (978 m), while to the northwest the saddle between Neuhäuser Hügel and Großem Eisenberg, which is still 820 m high, forms the border.
