Cycling

The Carolinenturm is a 26 m high observation tower that was built in 1909 in honor of the Grand Duchess Caroline of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, who died young. Once you have climbed the 106 steps to the viewing platform, you have a good view of Weimar, Kiliansroda, Mechelroda, Mellingen, the Thuringian Basin, with good visibility to the Kyffhäuser and Harz mountains. The chain of the Thuringian Forest can be seen in the south.

Hiking

From April to September, the Carolinenturm is open on Sundays and public holidays from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m., so you can enjoy a clear view! The tower's 26-meter height makes Riechheimer Berg the highest elevation in the area by about ten meters. ;)
