About this property

Vacation hut on the Goethe Trail with a view, close to the Rennsteig, UNESCO biosphere reserve

"I always liked being here
I think it comes from harmony,
everything is here ... "
(Goethe to Schiller, August 29, 1795)

Welcome to our cozy cabin in the Thuringian Forest!

Manebach is a district of the Goethe and university city of Ilmenau, idyllically situated on the northern slope of the Thuringian Forest.
Located on the outskirts in the immediate vicinity of the forest, our hut is your starting point for numerous activities in the immediate vicinity and for trips to the cultural sites of Thuringia. Well-maintained and well-signposted hiking and biking trails as well as good motorway access and regional train and bus connections (with the guest card free to use!).
Mention:
* Goethewanderweg (awarded as a quality hiking trail)
* Geoweg (Mining geological-paleontological trail Manebach-Kammerberg)
* Ilm Valley Cycle Route

Our cottage is well suited for two to five people. Three beds (two single or double) are on the sleeping loft with balcony, two more can be on the full sofa bed in the living room arise. Due to the rather steep, fold-away staircase ladder to the sleeping loft, the house is only partially suitable for small children or limited persons. In the fully equipped kitchen the self-catering will find everything you need. There is also a charcoal grill available. A butcher in the village offers traditional Thuringian specialties for this purpose. A steakhouse in the old train station, an ice cream parlor, a guesthouse with a restaurant and a grocery store complete the offer.
