A hidden oasis at the gates of Erfurt Just a few minutes by car from Thuringia's state capital Erfurt, this small oasis can be found: The Weißbach meanders through a shell limestone valley, which is partially wooded but also features dry grasslands, bushes, and orchards. The mighty pollarded willows, still traditionally maintained, also catch the eye. At the westernmost point of the hike, the Grundmühle is hidden – a relic from earlier times where people still live and work without electricity.
