Directions and local area

Alongside its picturesque location on the ridge of the Thuringian Forest, this former glassmaking settlement hosts a variety of different hiking spots and tourist attractions. Whether you wish to go hiking, enjoy a cycle tour along the Rennsteig trail, go to the Dreikaiserstrom or to the Werraquelle (source of the Werra river), we are happy to assist you in planning any excursions. In summer, you can also go summer tubing in Siegmundsberg, pan for gold in the Tal der Grümpen valley, or watch glassblowers practising their craft.

In the colder months, winter sport fans can look forward to well-tended ski slopes and the ski hill situated at the house with a snow tubing area.
