Blue gold, hiking trail anthem and crime scene

Since 1951, it has even had its own anthem: The Rennsteig is probably the most famous and oldest continuous high-altitude hiking trail and stretches 168 kilometres from the Eisenach district of Hörschel on the Werra to Blankenstein on the Saale. Countless vantage points and viewing platforms give users an unforgettable insight into the beauty of this landscape. Since 2000, there has also been an official Rennsteig cycle trail, which deviates a little from the historic Rennsteig here and there to avoid steep climbs along the route. As a result, the Rennsteig cycle trail is a total of 30 kilometres longer than the hiking trail. In winter, the Rennsteig is a true paradise for cross-country skiers. Both beginners and advanced skiers can use the ski trail on the Rennsteig.

Especially in the area around Oberhof, there is an abundance of charming hiking destinations near the Rennsteig. For example, the highest elevations of the Thuringian Forest such as the Große Beerberg (with its 983 m the highest mountain in Thuringia), the Schneekopf with 978 m and the Große Finsterberg with 944 m are easy to reach from here. The Rennsteig leads directly over the Grenzadler, in the immediate vicinity of which is the DKB-Ski-ARENA Oberhof. This is where competitions in the biathlon, cross-country skiing and the running disciplines in the Nordic combined are held. The Kanzlersgrund ski jumps, the DKB-Skisport-HALLE and the luge and bobsleigh track are also nearby. It pays off twice to book a holiday flat with a sauna.

If you leave your accommodation the next morning, you should also discover the state capital Erfurt. For example, take a walk through the well-preserved medieval town centre with its pretty patrician houses and lovingly restored half-timbered houses. As the economic, intellectual, cultural and political centre of Thuringia, Erfurt has always attracted great personalities such as Luther, Goethe, Schiller, Bach and Liszt. Buildings in Erfurt, such as the Augustinian Monastery or the Kaisersaal, are still reminders of this today. Not to be forgotten: In Erfurt, where Martin Luther studied from 1501 and entered the Augustinian monastery in 1505, lie important roots of his theology and the Reformation.

The cultural city of Weimar is also part of a holiday in the Thuringian Forest. Weimar's diversity never ceases to surprise visitors. In no other German city of comparable size has so much German and European cultural history taken place. Of the city's top ten, only the Bauhaus should be mentioned here, which, with its sites in Weimar and Dessau, is on Unesco's World Heritage List. In Weimar, Walter Gropius founded the State Bauhaus in 1919, which was to revolutionise design and artistic concepts and still has an impact today. The guiding principle was: "Form follows function." Nora Tschirner is an ardent supporter of the Bauhaus. Commissioner Dorn in the Weimar Tatort would like the Bauhaus University to be the filming location for an episode, because she confesses: "I am a total Bauhaus fan. I like everything that has to do with it."
