Rest area located on the former Thuringia/Hesse border. From here you can hike in all directions. The "Thuringian Rhönhaus" is not far away.

The "Arche Rhön" is a modern ship-shaped building in the "Rhoenwald Adventure World" and is intended to impart knowledge about the Rhön, regional handicrafts and geological phenomena in a playful way.

The building took about 12 months to build.
