Heldburg Forestry Office

Highlight • Monument

There are numerous half-timbered houses in Heldburg, but this one stands out 👍🏻. No wonder, since it is extensively designed with ornamental framework. It is still used today as a forestry office.

Hoher Stein

Highlight • Trail

There is a refuge here and now the Hoher Stein 328 stamp point. A trail leads here towards Bad Rodach. The Veste Heldburg or Billmuthausen can be reached quickly.

Highlight • Historical Site

The former place was razed during the GDR era. There is still a cemetery with a chapel and a well.

Cow Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Kuhseefest is legendary with brass band music and great food. It's time for it to take place again. From there you can also get to the Schnepfenbrunnen and further in the direction of Billmuthausen or Bad Colberg.

View of Veste Heldburg

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you can see the castle, bordered by trees on the left and right. A great photo opportunity. It's worth taking a break on the nearby Gerichtsberg.
