Railway hiking trail

Short description

The railway hiking trail connects important tourist destinations along the Unstrut railway.

Description

The railway hiking trail leads from the Unstrut railway stop in Wangen, via the visitor center "Arche Nebra", the rock massif "Steinklöbe", along the Klosterweinberg, initially to the Museum Kloster- und Kaiserpfalz in Memleben.

The hiking trail is worth a visit in every season and leads through old oak and beech forests.
You can enjoy beautiful views of the Unstrut Valley, the Kyffhäuser Mountains, the Hohe Schrecke, and the Unstrut railway.

In Memleben, the hiking trail is connected to the Feengrotten Kyffhäuser hiking trail, which can then be followed further to Roßleben via Wendelstein. If you do not turn south at Steinklöbe, but continue along the trail, you will also reach Wendelstein and can follow the Feengrotten Kyffhäuser hiking trail there.
