The Rennsteig map for walking holidays
Walking Holidays in Thuringia – the Green Heart of Germany.
The Rennsteig is a most significant Long Distance Path dating back more than 1,000 years . It was both a border and an important road linking Thuringia with northern Franconia. There are many intriguingly carved old border stones along the path and much of the route follows the main ridge of the Thuringian Forest through a nature reserve.
Starting just west of Eisenach (where Luther translated the Bible from Latin), it runs via the Grosser Inselsberg and the wintersports resort of Oberhof, to Blankenstein.
