Tips

Mountain biking

The start of the Rennsteig is somewhat hidden on the banks of the Werra. Access is through the courtyard of the small restaurant "Tor zum Rennsteig". This is open daily (except Tuesdays) from 11 a.m. You can stock up on drinks there if you need them - there are no places to buy drinks along the way until you reach Hohe Sonne.

There is also a small guesthouse here. I cannot give a review as I have never slept there myself. More information at: rennsteig-beginn.de.

Here begins the Rennsteig. Or he ends here. Do not forget to take a stone with you!
