Fairy Caves-Kyffhäuser-Weg

The Feengrotten-Kyffhäuser-Weg leads from Saalfeld to Bad Frankenhausen.

Also known as the main hiking trail, the Feengrotten-Kyffhäuser-Weg stretches from Saalfeld to Bad Frankenhausen in 12 stages over a distance of 230 km.
It runs through central Germany as a long-distance hiking trail. In Saale-Unstrut it follows the Saale cycle path for long distances and can be described as a link through the region.

Attention! Due to construction work, there is a diversion between Kaatschen and Rödingen (stage 6) via Kleinheringen. The duration of the diversion is foreseen for four years. 
In the Nebra - Wangen area (stage 9) there is an increased risk of deadwood.
