The Chausseehaus Hummelshain is a crossroads in the Thuringian Saale-Holzland district. Here is the car park for the medieval hunting grounds at Rieseneck. The high point, which is close to the Trompeterberg, is essentially passable from three sides.

Where the Orla flows into the Saale

Highlight • River

After 35 kilometers, the Orla flows into the Saale here. A pretty spot that is also suitable for a break, thanks to the small hikers' hut.
