June 25, 2022,🇩🇪 TH: Ausgebrannter Stein – Oberer Sieglitzteich Runde von Oberhof

A very relaxing round!

If tours around Oberhof are often affected by street noise, you are on the road here in beautiful silence.

The Burnt Out Stone is interesting, a tunnel for timber rafting that was driven around 1700. It is easy to walk through, a small lamp (mobile phone is enough) is helpful. After 10 meters it gets pitch …

A beautiful, easy-to-run sunny loop from Oberhof bus station to and through the Felsentunnel Ausgebrannter Stein 🤩
Don't miss the detour to the much more beautiful viewpoint with a rest stop and view of the Schneekopf on the way to the Hohen Stein 🤩👍!
At the Hohen Stein, we didn't immediately find the right path 😉, continuing past the Sieglitzteich …

Smaller round to the burned-out stone (a former raftsman tunnel) from Oberhof. Mostly on wide forest roads. To get to the Hohen Stein you have to scramble and climb a bit. Partly beautiful views of the Thuringian Forest.

June 13, 2025,Oberhof - Ausgebrannter Stein - Hoher Stein - Oberhof

A lovely, leisurely hike along gravel farm roads and shady forest paths. Watch out for the "Hoher Stein"! Many hikers have taken a wrong left turn there instead of climbing the rocks! Our walk ended a bit early at "Kati's Cafestübchen," but it was a delicious and cozy end to the tour!

February 15, 2025,20250215 Ausgebrannter Stein – Oberer Sieglitzteich von Oberhof

After having already walked this route once in the summer a few years ago, today we had completely different impressions. And that was not only because the clearing of the forests in several places ensures a further view.
The highlight of the tour was of course the Burnt Stone, which is crossed on the way. The subsequent ascent to the …
