게라베르그 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Forty years ago (in East Germany), this area was home to the largest thermometer factory in Europe. The thermometer at the roundabout serves as a reminder of this.

Picnic in the valley, a shared experience before or after a hike through the valley, either to Gehlberg or to the "Mönchshof".

The shelter is currently being rebuilt, but the rustic tree that stood next to it is likely gone forever. However, you can still enjoy the view of Geraberg.

The Swedish hut is no longer there...it's a very steep descent and a tight turn from Elgersburg. On a mountain bike, I think it's mostly a push-along section.

beautiful, easily overlooked viewpoint with a view of Schneekopf and Brand

Robber's castle or "Alteburg" 🏰 Legendary ruin from the High Middle Ages ⚔️ The so-called "robber's castle", which is the subject of several legends from the Thuringian Forest, is also often referred to as "Alteburg". The ruin is a rectangular fortification from the High Middle Ages that served to protect the former trade route from Erfurt across the Thuringian Forest to southern Germany. The rampart in the east, remnants of the ring wall (reconstructed), the cistern and the moat are still preserved today. The castle was probably built in 1150 by the Counts of Käfernburg. The name "robber's castle" seems to be based on the fact that the complex passed into the possession of robber barons several times during various battles in the 13th century. The ruins are a popular tourist destination. It is located on the western spur of the Arlesberg in Gräfenroda between Dörrberg and Geschwenda on the northern edge of the Thuringian Forest, above the Erfurt-Oberhof-Suhl railway line, which runs through the valley of the Wild Gera.
