Werra Pond

Highlight • Lake

A beautiful spot on the way to the Ausspanne (recreational area), with very cold water. A seating area is available. From here, you can take several paths up ↗️.

The Werra River is fed by two springs and flows through Germany's geographical center. A variety of wonderful spots await those who enjoy the riverside paths.

One of these is located here on the way to the Eisfelder Ausspanne (recreational area). The water is very cold. A seating area is available. From here, you can take several paths up ↗️ towards the Rennsteig. The descent from there leads past the idyllic rafting pond to Sachsenbrunn with its centuries-old dancing linden tree.

This pond was once used to dam up water so that wood could be floated down into the valley when it was drained.

Rennsteig Picnic Area at the Lake

Highlight • Rest Area

A very nice seating area made of solid wood and decorated with the Rennsteig's typical "R." Direct views of the crystal-clear water, a great spot.

Werra Spring Fehrenbach

Highlight • River

If you want to visit the Werraquelle, you strangely have two options. There are two Werraquelle in the Thuringian Forest: the rear spring near Siegmundsburg and the front spring here near Fehrenbach. You can fill up your water bottles at both. But only here at the front spring near Fehrenbach is there an additional hut that invites you to linger. The Werraquell hut was reopened at Pentecost 2019. Here you can try delicious Thuringian delicacies and recharge your batteries for your onward journey.

You can find the hut's opening times here: werraquell-huette.de

Eisfelder Resting Place

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Here you can relax. That's why the place is not called that way. The name goes back to the coachmen who once maneuvered their heavy wagons over the Rennsteig. Here, the poor horses were stretched out briefly, so they could rest a bit. For the perfect break refreshment, the Werra spring can provide a bit further, bubbling fresh from a snapdragon, before splashing on the way to the Weser. If you fancy a night in the nature boy style: The small hut offers sufficient protection.

Friedrichshöhe

Highlight • Settlement

Friedrichshöhe is an ideal starting point for tours to Bleßberg, to Masserberg, to Goldisthal or to Schönbrunn. You are up to date and achieve many goals relatively flexibly. Okay, sometimes it goes downhill and then uphill again, of course. But who does that stop?

Itz Spring (Itzquelle)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The small farming village of Stelzen was already known far beyond the country's borders in the Middle Ages. The reason for this was the Itz spring, which rises at a height of 673 m from the southern foot of the Bleß and was said to have healing powers. Legend has it that there was a healing well there that healed the blind and lame. After healing, the latter hung up their crutches and wooden stilts around the well, which was situated in a sinkhole-like grotto surrounded by ancient trees, vividly reminiscent of a sacred grove. Hence the name of the village.
