Officially called the bridge at Badergraben, it has truly earned its nickname with its 183 steps.

Nordic walking is also a very challenging workout. The "staircase of suffering" truly lives up to its name 😅.

FYI, the discovery tower is accessible all the way to the top (photo attached), but closed to climbing. As of August 2025, I had a fantastic view from up here. The Dragon's Tail Bridge is currently undergoing renovations after 18 years, expected to last until the end of November 2025, so it's closed. It's possible to walk through the bottom.

The Dragon's Tail Bridge in Ronneburg, Thuringia, will be closed for extensive renovation work starting Tuesday, June 10, 2025. The Gessental cycle path beneath the bridge will remain open and will be protected by scaffolding. Construction work is scheduled to be completed by the end of November 2025.

Wow... we were speechless several times today. What was going on here, past and present... Really interesting.

A nice challenge after a 10 km run in the new landscape.

A nice relaxation after the climb.

Beautifully situated in the Gessental on the “Gera-Süd nature trail”
