Werra Spring Fehrenbach

Highlight • River

If you want to visit the Werraquelle, you strangely have two options. There are two Werraquelle in the Thuringian Forest: the rear spring near Siegmundsburg and the front spring here near Fehrenbach. You can fill up your water bottles at both. But only here at the front spring near Fehrenbach is there an additional hut that invites you to linger. The Werraquell hut was reopened at Pentecost 2019. Here you can try delicious Thuringian delicacies and recharge your batteries for your onward journey.

You can find the hut's opening times here: werraquell-huette.de

Eisfelder Resting Place

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Here you can relax. That's why the place is not called that way. The name goes back to the coachmen who once maneuvered their heavy wagons over the Rennsteig. Here, the poor horses were stretched out briefly, so they could rest a bit. For the perfect break refreshment, the Werra spring can provide a bit further, bubbling fresh from a snapdragon, before splashing on the way to the Weser. If you fancy a night in the nature boy style: The small hut offers sufficient protection.

Three-current brick

Highlight • Monument

All water flows from here to the North Sea. It feeds three rivers that shape our landscapes via three different routes: the Elbe to its mouth near Hamburg, the Weser to Bremerhaven, and the Rhine with one of its estuaries near Hook of Holland. As a triple watershed, this point is unique in Germany.

Neuhaus am Rennweg

Highlight • Settlement

Neuhaus am Rennsteig was once the highest and smallest district town in the GDR. In numbers: Neustadt lies at 830 meters in the middle of the Thuringian Forest and has about 6800 inhabitants. Incidentally, the Rennsteig is called Rennweg here if you wonder. Not only the Rennsteig leads through Neuhaus, but also the Thuringian Porcelain Route and the German Toy Street meet here. In the city you will find all kinds of gastronomy for every taste and budget. Highly recommended are freshly made Thuringian sausages, which taste nowhere as good as in this area. There are also accommodations for every taste. You can find information about Neuhaus here: neuhaus-am-rennweg.de/seite/313138/unterkünfte.html

Rennsteigwarte Observation Tower on Eselsberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you want to have the total Rennsteig overview: Here is your chance! The observation tower "Rennsteigwarte" stands on the donkey mountain and increases it by another 33 meters. 150 steps you have to overcome, then beckons great views of the Schneekopf, the Schwarzatal or the summits of the Fichtelgebirge. If you want to make the Rennsteig in one day, you better leave this stop;)

Opening hours:
Mon. to Sun. 9am to 7pm
