Railway Carriage Bench on the Rennsteig–Frauenwald Trail

Highlight • Structure

The railway ran here until the 1960s. The former railway embankment is now a hiking and cycling trail. The break bench is designed as a wagon to match the railway embankment. If you pay attention, you can also discover replica wooden railway signs a few meters in front of and behind the "Wagon". You can enjoy the view of the high moor during your break.

Rennsteig Portal Schmiedefeld on the Rennsteig

Highlight • Monument

The Rennsteig is the oldest and most famous long-distance hiking trail in Germany. It runs for exactly 169.3 kilometers from Hörschel near Eisenach to Blankenstein.
The trail over the ridge of the Thuringian Forest was once an important trade route for merchants and couriers, as well as a border route.
To the left and right of the Rennsteig, historic residential towns, traditional places and small mountain villages are waiting to be explored by you and are happy to welcome you as their guests. To ensure that you don't miss anything, there are a total of 40 "Rennsteig ladders" that show you things worth seeing in the immediate vicinity. If you follow the signs from this Rennsteig portal, you will eventually reach the town portal in Schmiedefeld a. R.
