If you’ve come to Germany for walks, you’ve found what you’re looking for. In the Thuringian Forest, you can go on splendid nature hikes all the year around. The winter is great for cross-country skiing and there are plenty of tracks and trails to explore your surroundings by bicycle or mountain bike. You’ll pass authentic villages, ancient castles, churches and monasteries. The most famous castle is the Wartburg, founded in 1067 on a hill 441 metres tall, high above the town of Eisenach. Don’t forget to visit Arnstadt, the oldest town in Thüringen and one of the birthplaces of German culture. We also recommend Jena, known for its glass industry, and Weimar, the city of Bach, Goethe and Schiller.
