Maps and trails
Geroda is located in the middle of the beautiful Thuringian Slate Mountains. The picturesque landscape with its dense forests, rolling hills and green valleys is a true paradise for nature lovers. But it's not just nature that has a lot to offer here - the small village also has a lot to offer culturally.

One highlight is undoubtedly the 18th-century Gereuth Castle, which is located in the middle of a magnificent park. Here you can take a guided tour through magnificent rooms or simply enjoy the view of the well-tended garden.

For art lovers, a visit to the Alte Mühle artists' house is a must: Exhibitions are held regularly in this historic building.

When it comes to culinary delights, you should definitely try the regional specialities: For example, there is a special kind of bratwurst called "Rostbrät'l" here, which tastes particularly juicy! Hearty stews such as "Thüringer Klöße" (Thuringian dumplings) are also a delicacy!

In summer, hikes along the numerous well-marked trails through the picturesque landscape are enticing. In winter you can go skiing or cross-country skiing on the surrounding hills.

And what to do when it rains? Then a visit to the Saale-Orla District Museum in Pößneck is recommended, where you can learn more about the history of the region.

Overall, Geroda is definitely worth a trip - whether for nature lovers, culture enthusiasts or gourmets! It is especially beautiful here in spring and autumn, when the forests glow in warm colours. Come by and let yourself be enchanted by this little jewel in the Thuringian Slate Mountains!

    Die Streckenführung ist überzeugend, großer Weganteil mit wenig bis gar keinem Autoverkehr. Recht hügelig. Teilweise schlechte Straßen/Wege. Aber nette Fachwerkorte und schöne Ausblicke. Der Bismarckturm ist nicht in den GPS-Daten enthalten, aber möglicherweise ohnehin selten geöffnet. Insgesamt aber eine sehr empfehlenswerte Radtour!
