Entrance to the Drachenschlucht

Highlight • Gorge

The Dragon Gorge is always great. In winter with the loud rushing water and from spring onwards it is incredibly green.

However, it is also very busy at weekends, so if possible, choose a weekday to visit.

Highlight • Waterfall

A highlight that you should treat yourself to, the way to the 2nd floor requires surefootedness.

Dragon Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

We started early and had the gorge almost to ourselves. An absolute highlight, and not just for children - high rocks, water and plants create a unique backdrop.

Dragon Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

After three weeks of hiking in Thuringia, I can say that this is the most beautiful natural spectacle I have seen. Great how the path meanders through the moss-covered rocks of the gorge.

Landgrafen Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Landgrafenschlucht is a little more lovely than the neighboring Drachenschlucht, but its rock formations and vegetation are no less impressive. A wide, easy-to-walk path winds through it, secured in some places by wooden planks or steps or small bridges.

Landgrave Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The Landgrafenschlucht is very attractive and you can easily combine it as a circular route with the Drachenschlucht.
