The Steinbauer-Seebers Hut (often simply called the Seeber Hut or something similar) is located on the Kleiner Gleichberg near Römhild in Thuringia. The hut is named after Steinbauer Seeber, a figure associated with the forestry and hiking development of the Gleichberge area. The hut is situated at an altitude of approximately 530 meters on the ascent to the Kleiner Gleichberg. The area around the Kleiner Gleichberg is known for the Steinsburg Museum (Celtic culture) and as a hiking area (near the Waldhaus). It is a typical shelter in the Gleichberge forest, serving as a rest stop.

The trails in the small wooded area belong to the school camp and are absolutely fantastic. The pump track next to the campsite is amazing... 🤩 And the best part: anyone who wants to can use the trails and the pump track at their own risk. Awesome! A big thank you to the municipality of Hendungen!
