March 26, 2026, Erosion Ditch and Touringen Stamp Box No. 40

The erosion gully in Hainich National Park impressively shows how water shapes the forest floor during rain. The soils in Hainich consist largely of Muschelkalk - a rock that is easily washed away by water. The water carries material with it, and small rills form. Over time, these develop into erosion gullies like this one. A bridge leads over this gully. In spring, you can admire a sea of wild garlic here. A quiet place where you can enjoy nature and collect the Touringen stamp no. 40 at the same time.

The Saugraben circular hiking trail can be started from the Am Zollgarten or Fuchsfarm hiking car park. It runs for 10 km (marked with a wild boar) through the Hainich and offers numerous stations with information boards.

The Germanic Cult Trail is easily accessible from the Zollgarten or Kammerforst hiking car parks. The trail is 3.5 km long with eight stations, is easy to hike and is marked with the Irminsul Column, a mystical tree.
