SaaleHorizontale: Trail with Views over Jena

Highlight • Trail

A hiking trail that you wouldn't actually expect in the German low mountain ranges. Rather, alpine character prevails here. Narrow, stony paths that hug the rocks - fun to hike here!

Kernberge Cliff Trail with views of Jena

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great hiking trail with a great view, but be careful: you should be sure-footed and free from giddiness.

The detour to the Fürstenbrunnen is always a must for us - at the start of the tour to fill up the fresh spring water and at the end to give your feet a refreshment just like Kneipp. It is a place of rest to gather and pause.

Lobdeburg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The Lobdeburg was already a ruin in Goethe's time and was lyrically featured in his poem "Bergschloss" (Mountain Castle). Below the ruins is the Lobdeburgklause, a tavern with a lovely beer garden.
