Of course, Oberhof has the Rennsteig, the famous high-altitude hiking route, right on its doorstep, but hiking in and around Oberhof does not necessarily mean walking the Rennsteig.
Oberhof offers numerous other tours besides the Rennsteig, which lead past wonderful natural beauty and are also suitable for inexperienced hikers, because they are shorter and somewhat flatter.
Starting from our house, a twenty to thirty minute walk leads to the famous Rennsteig Garden, Oberhof's famous botanical garden. Those who love bizarre rock formations will be happy to take another short detour from the parking lot at the Rennsteig Garden and walk to the Burnt Stone. This trail is about three kilometers long and leads the nature lover past a moor nature trail after the first two kilometers and ends at the beautiful, craggy rock.
Another very beautiful hike leads from Oberhof over five kilometers to the Lütschetalsperre with a breathtaking view. Oberhof is a paradise for hikers. Whether experienced and trained or casual hiker, everyone will find hiking routes with different levels. But all hiking routes have one thing in common: Whether short or long, whether with many climbs or relatively flat, the area around Oberhof offers nature wherever the eye looks.
