Waagebalkenweg Trail in Hainich National Park

Highlight • Trail

The weighing beam path runs for a total of 42 km as a historic long-distance route from the Harthhaus near Bad Langensalza to the Weißen Haus near Mühlhausen, 20 km of which is in Hainich.
The balance beam path crosses the Feensteig (this is approx. 3 km long) and can be hiked as a section from the Tor zum Hainich hiking car park.

Fairy Trail, Hainich National Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Feensteig is worthwhile for children and adults with a fantasy who still believe a little in fairy tales.

Hainichlandweg Trail

Highlight • Trail

The Hainichland Trail runs through the national park and is simply beautiful—pure nature. Highly recommended, especially on hot days.

Hainich Canopy Walk

Highlight • Viewpoint

Panoramic and instructive treetop path with great views. A head for heights is an advantage, but the path is very stable. In any case, nothing wobbled or swayed during our visit. The hands-on exhibition in the information building on the subject of "Life underground" is highly recommended for young visitors (but not only for them).

I still don't like the treetop path, like I did many years ago, but the forest promenade and the Feensteig, which is actually not a climb, are beautifully laid out.. can be a bit bigger.. the playground across from the parking lot looks good but I didn't go inside , because I think I'm too old for that 😂 but …

Trip to the Hainich 🥰
Just in time for the peak of the wild garlic blossom, we first went to the nature park center in Thiemsburg with its always interesting exhibitions and then continued on the treetop path (komoot didn't want to go there - was probably afraid of heights today 🤷‍♀️😅). Afterwards, Frank got the stamps at the Feensteig …

Today we visited the Unesco World Heritage National Park Hainich. A special highlight here is the treetop path. The national park is definitely worth a visit 🤩.

The dog and I actually wanted to escape the fireworks in the city. But near Weberstedt, the present caught up with us. In picture 4, the dog wanted to retreat in fear. I then decided to walk back the way we came. The dog accepted this because the car offers her safety!

Birthday hike in constant rain 😳 ...
The planned tour was theoretically supposed to be 11 km with a picnic.
The constant rain reduced the hike drastically.
We had a picnic with a roof over our heads at the "Thiemsburg" forester's lodge. The waiter was very nice and let us eat the picnic we had brought with us on the …
