Selbitz Bridge (Rennsteig Trail Endpoint)

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful wooden bridge over the Selbitz, a few meters before it flows into the Saale. The Selbitz used to be the border river between the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany, but today the bridge connects the former East and West Germany as well as the hiking hubs of Franconia and Thuringia. The major hiking trails Rennsteig, Kammweg, Frankenweg and Fränkischer Gebirgsweg begin here.

Bridge of Peace

Highlight • Bridge

Bridge as a means to an end, e.g. on the circuit around the Bleiloch (komoot.de/highlight/3556438), unfortunately a separate cycle path on the bridge was forgotten 🤣

Höllental (Frankenwald Nature Park)

Highlight • Gorge

Very easy to reach and a great nature experience.
There are many beautiful forest routes to Lichtenberg, Kemlas, Issigau, Bad Steben.
From the Höllental you continue to Blankenstein, the hub for other “large” routes, e.g. B. the Rennsteing, the Saale cycle path, etc.
Thanks to Komoot, easy planning and orientation is possible.
