Dammbachsgrund Route

The start is at the Tourist Information Bad Berka. From there via Ilmstraße and Parkstraße to Blankenhainer Straße. Cross Blankenhainer Straße at the pedestrian crossing and the path leads onto Trebestraße. After 1.2 km, it goes right behind the parish hall of the Catholic Church into the forest, and the path leads along a trail almost to the Bad Berka sports ground. Once the trail meets an asphalt path, turn left onto this asphalt path and follow it to the entrance of Dreiteichsgrund. Here you will find a barbecue hut and a rest area. Since the Ilm Valley cycle path also runs along this route, you will meet many cyclists. At Dreiteichsgrund, turn left into the valley, walk along the three ponds, and reach Carl-Alexander-Platz at km 3. Here is the Kneipp facility Dammbachsgrund with benches as well as the Carl-Friedrich spring. The asphalt path continues northwards into Dammbachsgrund. At the end of the asphalt path, turn left and go uphill on the gravel path. We pass the Heustiel Hut and then reach the Trebe residential area. We follow Trebestraße uphill to the pedestrian crossing at Blankenhainer Straße. Cross this and return to the starting point.

Arrival by bus and train possible. Starting point is accessible on foot.

City center parking lot (well signposted on local signposts); free parking as well as caravan parking space; from there about 400 m walk to the Tourist Information.
