The natural monument made of basalt rock, which is managed by the Werra Valley Association, is always worth a visit. The narrow, well-groomed paths and the stones themselves transport me to a different, earlier world with every stay.

Viewpoint Hoher Meißner

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view that is very far when the weather is good. Unfortunately the restaurant is currently closed. A beer on the trail was always a nice reward

Meißnerhaus Naturfreundehaus

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The location is pleasantly quiet with no traffic noise. A nice place for families with children. The cake is very good. Otherwise it's down to earth. Thanks to self-service, everyone has the quality of service in their own hands. ;-)

September 27, 2024,Kitzkammer und Seesteine am Hohen Meissner

We were disappointed with the P1 at the time. It's your own fault if you accidentally miss the two highlights. We happened to catch up on them today on a very nice tour. The former Seesteine landscape park in particular is fantastic and I (again by chance) entered the park early on in a part that is obviously no longer …

The so-called winter hiking trail was released, in places newly gravelled. Safety on the mountain comes first!😁
