Scenic Trail to the Suspension Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The way from the beech to the bridge is a really worthwhile one. It is best to approach the bridge from this side, as the "normal route" coming from Braunsdorf from the other side is often well walked.

During cherry season, nobody has to go hungry here, the way away from Gehofen leads over a rustic Holweg with a beautiful view of the valley.

May 8, 2022,Hohe Schrecke – kleiner Rundweg hohe Schrecke mit Hängeseilbrücke - von Braunsroda
This is a beautiful tour where you don't meet many people (except at the bridge). This tour is particularly beautiful in the spring, when everything is sprouting and shining in fresh green, everything is blooming, there is chirping everywhere. The path mostly leads through the Thuringian primeval forest and is particularly rich in species (plants and animals). You can hear …

I drove home from Frankfurt around midnight and didn't go to bed until 3. The concert was OK, as I was actually quite impressed by the atmosphere in the stadium, along with the pyrotechnics. But the acoustics were a bit of a mush. It had been much better in Prague. I got up a little later, sorted out the records …

We set off this morning in fog and then in the most beautiful sunshine. I had the suspension bridge to myself and was able to enjoy the view.

Next week it's back to the grind 🔧 and from September larger renovations are due at the house, so now it's time to step on the gas. I've set myself the goal of collecting 50 Touringen stamps by the end of the year, and with this tour, that makes 23.😊
The Kleine Hohe-Schrecke circular trail particularly interested me because of …

Hohe Schrecke, new territory for us. But very beautiful! The well-developed path constantly changes its appearance between deciduous forest and meadows with blossoming fruit trees. We hadn't seen the modern suspension bridge until today. But that alone is worth the hike. You almost wait for Sonja Zietlow to appear on the bridge and shout: "I'm a star...". At the entrance …

Yes! 💪🏻 I'm finally getting back into collecting Touringen stamps. This is the third tour in a row where I've had to open the green box and put the stamp in my notebook. 📗

But the Kleine Hohe Schrecke Runde doesn't just have three Touringen stamps ♟️ to offer, it's also a hike with stunning Thuringian nature and a bit …

Today was the departure day, so a short hike before heading home. I discovered this route on the Thuringian tour stamp page. So I saved it and went.
Parked at the Braunsroda parking lot. I was a bit confused that there was a parking attendant there. When I asked if there was a Pentecost run or something similar happening today, …

Did the second Touringen tour today in the best Easter weather! Stamped 123 at the same time because it was only 400 meters away from our actual hiking route.
