Anyone who wants to experience a snowflake wonderland must visit this small, sleepy village not far from Neustadt an der Orla right now. A carpet of white and green welcomes everyone who enters the manor house's small park. Mossy walls, old stairs, ancient trees... simply wonderful. We were simply thrilled.

Today this was almost the center of my little trip. A very quiet place where the little refreshment tasted good.

Forest house 14 oaks... resting place for hikers and bikers. Very cool location to rest and breathe deeply. Crossing point of the paths to Langendembach and Hummelshain or to Neustadt (Hohe Straße)

Badly dilapidated building of the Rödelsmühle. According to the information board, it served as a fulling mill for the Neustadt cloth-making trade in the 15th century. Later, technical oils and other chemical items were manufactured here. Production ceased in 1948. The mill served as a holiday camp until 1990.
