Hiking

After climbing the Domberg and the Bismarck Tower, you will be rewarded with a wonderful view of the Thuringian countryside and Suhl. Unfortunately, the Dombergbaude (former restaurant) is now just a lost place.

The Bismarck Tower on the Domberg in Suhl is a historic observation tower built in 1896 in honor of Otto von Bismarck. It stands at a height of 676 meters and offers an impressive 360° panoramic view of Suhl, the Thuringian Forest, and the Rhön Mountains.
