Zickzack-Lutherweg Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Narrow path that goes constantly uphill. In rainy weather, etc., I don't want to go up or down. I just went up today. Niece for those afraid of heights. Down the others. Right the way over the meadow.

Leuchtenburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Worth seeing! The Leuchtenburg lies high above the Saale valley. It grants a wide all-round view from the Harz to the Thuringian Forest. Within its castle walls it houses a museum on the subject of Thuringian porcelain and its 800-year history. The porcelain town of Kahla, which lies at the foot of the castle, impresses with its historic city center.

There you can sit in a wonderfully undisturbed and quiet, romantic setting with a magnificent view down into the Saale valley. 😎😅

Siebshaus

Highlight • Mountain Hut

At over 500 years old, it is probably the oldest hunting lodge in the former ducal hunting ground. The log house served as a central meeting point before and after hunting and as an arsenal for storing hunting equipment.
