Top 20 Huts and Cabins around Bad Königshofen im Grabfeld

The Steinbauer-Seebers Hut (often simply called the Seeber Hut or something similar) is located on the Kleiner Gleichberg near Römhild in Thuringia. The hut is named after Steinbauer Seeber, a figure associated with the forestry and hiking development of the Gleichberge area. The hut is situated at an altitude of approximately 530 meters on the ascent to the Kleiner Gleichberg. The area around the Kleiner Gleichberg is known for the Steinsburg Museum (Celtic culture) and as a hiking area (near the Waldhaus). It is a typical shelter in the Gleichberge forest, serving as a rest stop.

The free parking lot is located at the end of Basaltwerkstraße. It is best to park on the left side of the road. We parked on the right side and were in the full summer heat in the afternoon. The small Liegelbergschutzhütte invites you to linger. There you will find brochure material about the Gleichberg area, but also helpful hiking trail signs. We found this place to be very lovingly and richly detailed. It is a joy to look at this place.

A small shelter invites you to linger at the end of the hike. You can also find brochures there, as well as many helpful hiking trail signs.

Plain but quite generously sized shelter halfway up (530 meters -> summit of the Kl. Gleichberg then 641 meters). So a somewhat larger hiking group could also find space here.

The castle square is protected by steep slopes in the south, north and west. To the east the terrain spur merges into the ridge. In the west, a small, semicircular outer bailey was added to the ramparts. The former gates were probably located in the northwest at the junction of the main and outer bailey walls and in the east. The preserved ramparts are still several meters high and are surrounded by deep outer ditches with low ramparts. The entire complex is around 330 meters long and up to 170 meters wide. Archaeological investigations show that the most recent fortification phase was a two-fronted wall made of wood and earth. This fortification probably replaced two proven older wood-earth-stone walls in the Carolingian-Ottonian period. However, the earliest traces of settlement date back to the Urnfield period, and the area also served as a settlement site during the Hallstatt and early La Tène periods.
