The stone dumps of the Steinsburg on the Kleiner Gleichberg near Römhild in Thuringia are a sea of volcanic rock formed by the eroding basalt blocks of the former volcano. They line the slopes of the basalt cones and are a typical feature of the crumbling volcanic ruins of the Gleichberg Mountains. The term "Steinsburg" probably derives from these large stone fields surrounding the mountain plateau. In Celtic times, these basalt blocks were used to build dry-stone walls for the oppidum (hilltop settlement) built around the mountain.

After completing the climb, you can sit on this bench and gaze directly at Römhild and the Großer Gleichberg, which seems almost dwarfed from here. Regardless, the view is unique. 🤩

Very interesting, well laid out and therefore recommendable.

On the information boards you can learn a lot about the largest Celtic settlement in Central Germany, the Steinsburg

It goes uphill quite a bit, otherwise a nice tour

Can be used for the ascent or descent to the Kleiner Gleichberg 🤔👍😉

The Kleiner Gleichberg is one of the most important archaeological sites in Thuringia. It is connected to the archaeological hiking trail, along which information boards explain the findings on the Kleiner Gleichberg, especially based on the numerous preserved ramparts from the time of Celtic settlement.

Here you are standing directly on the edge of one of the basalt slopes that are so typical of the Kleiner Gleichberg. Across the slightly hilly landscape of the Gabfeld, the ridge of the Thuringian Forest can be clearly seen in the distance. An engraved panoramic stone plaque explains the individual peaks.
