Hoher Ofen (iron smelting furnace) in the Schorte Valley

Highlight • Monument

The pies originate on the eastern slope of the horse mountain near Stützerbach. It runs through the Schortetal, forms the Knöpfelstaler pond in its upper part, a reservoir created in the 17th century for rafting wood, and after 8.5 km it flows into the Ilm at the Grenzhammer, a district of Ilmenau. There is a lot to see in terms of mining history. Be it the "Hohe Ofen", the "Voglersmühle", the Schaubergerk "Volle Rose" and much more.

Tour to the Knöpfelstaler pond...a bit strenuous, but you are rewarded with pure nature and a newly installed beautiful chill bench...
