    The Thuringian Forest

    The Thuringian Forest is a classic low mountain range in the heart of Germany – and one of the quintessential green holiday regions. Dense forests, varied natural landscapes and a long history make it a special destination at any time of year. In the north-west, it extends as far as the area around Eisenach, where Wartburg Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, towers over the town. To the south-east, it merges into the Thuringian Slate Mountains. The wider tourist region extends as far as the Sonneberg area.

    Near the Rennsteig, the 978-metre-high Schneekopf rises up. The highest point in the Thuringian Forest is the Großer Beerberg at 982 metres. The neighbouring Slate Mountains are characterised by a variety of rock formations that bear witness to the region’s long geological history.

    The two source branches of the River Werra rise in the transitional zone between the southern Thuringian Forest and the Thuringian Slate Mountains, not far from the Rennsteig. From there, the river flows through southern and western Thuringia towards Hesse. Around Ilmenau and Suhl, hiking trails, cycle routes and cross-country ski trails await anyone wishing to explore the region actively.

    Large parts of the region form part of the Thuringian Forest Nature Park. Added to this is the Thuringian Forest UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, which was recognised in 1979 under the name Vessertal. Both help to preserve the region’s valuable natural and cultural landscapes and ensure they remain accessible for future generations.
