On the path leading up to Heldburg Fortress in Thuringia, you'll eventually come across a linden tree split in two. A sign is attached to the hollow of this tree, and I'd like to tell you about it now: "Castle Linden of Heldburg Fortress – Large-leaved Summer Linden. Wanderer, pause! Read my story here: In 1791, I was planted by the then Ducal Court Secretary, Johann Daniel Bechmann (1768-1826), from Heldburg. That's why I was also called the Bechmann Linden. Around 1960, lightning destroyed my beautiful crown and split the trunk. Duke George II of Saxe-Meiningen (1826-1914) and his wife, Baroness von Heldburg (1839-1923), often lingered in the shade of its spreading branches when they resided here at the fortress during the summer months."

The Waldbaude Großer Dreiherrenstein is a rustic restaurant in the Thuringian Forest, located directly on the Rennsteig Trail. It offers a cozy atmosphere and traditional Thuringian specialties, including roasted pork, dumplings, and seasonal dishes. Opening hours: Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Nice idea - almost yoga

In the middle of the Thuringian Forest, directly on the Rennsteig, there has been an inn called “Waldschänke Dreiherrnstein” since 1911 at an altitude of 740m above sea level.

The Great Dreiherrenstein (short: Dreiherrnstein) is a crossing point of several old trade routes on the Rennsteig in the Thuringian Forest.

With a dominance of almost 20 kilometers and a prominence of almost 300 meters, the Großer Gleichberg is one of the most sublime mountains in Thuringia and for that reason alone it is worth a visit. The surrounding towns are: Zellfeld in the northeast, Roth in the east, Simmershausen and Gleicherwiesen in the southeast, Gleichamberg in the south, Hindfeld and Milz in the southwest, Römhild in the west, and Haina in the northwest

The climb up to the plateau is strenuous, but the view from above makes up for the effort. You can look towards Franconia (Bavaria) or towards Kleiner Gleichberg (Thuringia). This is where the viewpoints get their name from.

According to legend, if you crawl through the stone once, your wish will come true, provided you keep it to yourself. So it's definitely worth it for everyone. You can read the entire legend on the plaque, including a special episode about the former carters. But to read it in full, you have to make the journey here.
