Rennsteig Trail Near Neuhaus am Rennweg

Highlight • Trail

After the turn-off from the industrial area onto the forest road, it's a complete disaster. The forest road is paved with fist-sized gravel stones. And that goes over the Werra spring until about 5 km before Eisfeld.

The view is magnificent - and so is the opportunity (except on Mondays) to have a meal right next door. Everything from roasts, cakes and beer to coffee is available.

Unfortunately the forest does not look good anymore, a lot of damage caused by the bark beetle.

The new Gasthaus an der Werraquelle offers more guest comfort than the old version. A nice resting point in the hiking area around the donkey mountain between Masserberg and Fehrenbach. …

September 9, 2023,Rennsteig: Von Neuhaus zu den Werraquellen
New tour, new happiness! And new experiences. Today it's an all-round positive: you can (if you're lucky?) take a bike with you on the Franconia-Thuringia Express (RE42) on a Saturday. From Saalfeld the 405 bus with a bicycle trailer took me up to Neuhaus. That was really great.

Unfortunately, 8km are missing, which somewhat distorts the overall experience. But it's still a very nice tour.
