Highlight • River

Once a vacationer stronghold, in GDR times. Not so anymore. A beautiful place located in the valley. The Saale flows through the middle

Ziegenrück on the Saale River

Highlight • Settlement

Ziegenrück is simply a small, sleepy place between the Thuringian seas. The food is very good and there are countless beautiful cycling and hiking trails. A detour is worthwhile.
