Father's tower can be found in the immediate vicinity of the thieves' chamber. From here you have a great view of the Hermannstal.
The tower is on private property! You can look at it, but please don't leave any trash lying around!

Helmutborn Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

This must have been a spring or just a "water collection point" (near the father's tower)...unfortunately it was just dry. But maybe water splashes here every now and then. Because everywhere in the valley you can see channels leading to the main stream etc., drinking troughs for the forest dwellers.

The stone pyramid and the tower (thieves chamber) are a bit off the trail, in the direction of Lichtstedt.

Georgseiche Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Eight paths from all directions converge at this place. The "Wegestern" is a popular point of orientation, meeting point and resting place. It owes its name to Prince Georg Albert, the first Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt prince who tried to establish industrial facilities in his principality. Anyone looking for the original George Oak will look in vain.
Unfortunately, she did not have a long life. But the name was retained and is still very vividly reminiscent of the prince. In spring 2012 a new "George Oak" was planted in the grove.

Today I let Komoot guide me 🫣😂. It started well with beautiful views of Rudolstadt and a good path 🤗🥾. I passed a beautiful mountain hut and there was a lot to discover. Then there were only ideas and possibilities instead of paths. Maybe they were paths.
If you like solitude and want to discover something and like to go …

Wonderful hike through wonderful forests on very beautiful hiking trails. Unfortunately, it took a little longer due to the wonderful blueberries.

Today the boy 🤭 had to get some fresh air to clear his head and then he took his dog with him. 🙈🐕😊

The result was a spontaneous, small but also very nice hike. Unfortunately there was no time for a longer tour. 😉
The paths were good and the weather was good too.
The Hermanstal is always a beautiful …
