프라우엔발트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Explorer of the Thuringian Forest. In 1829 he undertook the first continuous hike along the Rennsteig.

You can't get more nature than on the 170km long Rennsteig. There are also a number of raised bogs to see.

Here at 978 m you have a really great all-round view of other peaks in the Thuringian Forest and the Rhön, up to the Ettersberg near Weimar and Oberhof. With very good visibility, such as winter inversion weather conditions, the view extends to the Brocken in the Harz Mountains, to the Schneeberg (Fichtelgebirge) and to the western Ore Mountains. You can also see the “Wilde Gera” (A 71) motorway bridge, the largest arched bridge in Germany with a span of 252 m. https://schneekopf.eu/ And if you want, you can crack the 1000 meter mark here on the observation tower for three euros. Diligence also has its price.

Very nice vantage point with a successful lookout tower

It was probably here that Goethe wrote his poem "Over all summits is peace" in pencil on a wooden wall on the upper floor on the evening of September 6, 1780. The picturesque shed is therefore of great cultural and historical importance.

Great view, you have to enjoy it!

A photo is a must when you get there!

The highest point of the entire "Rennsteig" hiking trail (973 meters) is away from the Plänckners Aussicht lookout tower and rest area and is not the highest point in Thuringia at the same time. This is the Great Beerberg (983 meters), which is a few meters north of the Rennsteig from the vantage point. However, it is a high moor and not a peak with a spectacular view, such as the Schneekopf.
