그로살메로데 최고의 러닝 경로

Plenty of gravel parking is available on the hillside. It's often very crowded on weekends when the weather is good. From here, you can start the premium hiking trail P14 or explore the many smaller circular routes in the Kaufungen Forest. A large hiking map is located at the parking area.

The yellow lady's slipper (Cypripedium calceolus), often simply called the lady's slipper, is exceptionally beautiful and legendary. However, the conditions for the yellow lady's slipper are becoming increasingly difficult. Intensive forestry and agriculture are reducing the semi-shaded locations that the lady's slipper requires. Another critical issue is that "orchid enthusiasts" are repeatedly digging up wild plants, and photo tourists are damaging the growing areas.

A great area for nature lovers

The lady's slipper is beautiful, especially when the flowers have opened and the slipper is shown off.

The Schneehagen Trail begins at the Hohen Meißner and ends at Ludwigstein Castle. The tour offers magnificent views and is highly recommended.

The lady's slipper begins to bloom from mid-May to early June (as of 2025). That would be a great time to check it out!
