Official Center of Thuringia (Rockhausen)

Highlight • Monument

If you're already in the area, you might as well stop by. The small access cycle path, an asphalt road lined mostly with young chestnut trees, is fantastic to ride on.

Small shelter between Kirchheim and Rockhausen. Great view of the Thuringian Forest. Bench and table for resting.

Bischleben village centre

Highlight • Settlement

Two snack bars and food outlets, directly on the cycle path, offering either good, traditional fare or upscale options depending on your preference; unfortunately, they have limited opening hours.

December 18, 2022, Freezer-Tour #Erfurt #EnjoyWinterOutside

For today's 4th Advent, I really wanted to "turn on" the gas cooker again and I thought, what could be nicer than enjoying the sunset (1:20h / 21.6km/h)...❄️🌅 Without further ado I packed everything on my bike and off I went towards Egstedt. The beautiful long way is always wonderful and fortunately it was completely free. I chose the small and rather remote shelter in Rockhausen as my destination. After I passed the (icy and Christmassy decorated) center of Thuringia in Rockhausen, I arrived at the hut. Everything was set up quickly and hot water was boiled for the coffee. Together with a "Christmas" set Advent table and a coffee in my hand, I not only enjoyed the sunset, but was also grateful for this great moment and that in the most wonderful "fresh" winter weather...🥶🎄☕️ Conclusion: Every season has its charm and it's us who make the moments special - keep exploring...😎 Ps: In the end I had homemade tea slush 😋
