フォラーシュローダでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

素晴らしい神秘的でロマンチックな場所🥰。

It's quite an unusual bridge. Neither side is favored (red arrow), so look carefully before driving onto it.

The mill shop is highly recommended. It's open Friday through Sunday. A visit is a must! Thuringian sheet cakes, freshly brewed beer, eggnog and jams from Grandma, onion cake, and... ...all in a truly rustic atmosphere!

Great wooden bridge 🤩. But be careful, it's still busy in places.

A real insider tip in the Ilm Valley: The mill shop with its traditional German bakery offers fresh bread and rolls on Fridays, and seasonal sheet cakes on weekends. Hot and cold drinks and a small selection of food are also available. The flour for baking is produced directly in the watermill – and you'll find many special regional products in the shop.

The obelisk is a cultural monument and at the same time a silent witness to the transformation of the palace gardens in the 19th century, when people began to combine baroque austerity with landscape romanticism.

A popular spot in the middle of the forest, whether for barbecues or for the kids to run around.
