In the heart of the Thuringian Forest, overlooking the majestic Ruppberg, a modern birch chalet awaits you, perfectly capturing the beauty of the local nature. The spacious living area with its inviting fireplace will be your cozy retreat after active days in nature.
On the ground floor, the open-plan living and dining area blends harmoniously with the surroundings. Real wood, ceramics, and natural stone elements characterize the high-quality character of the house. A special attraction is the cozy bed alcove, which delights both children and adults alike.
The spacious terrace offers a breathtaking view of the valley and invites you to enjoy meals together. In the spacious garden, you will find hidden seating areas, a hanging chair by the small pond, and a versatile playground with a trampoline, rope slide, and swings. The sauna offers a beautiful retreat for relaxation, and there is a small fee of €50 for 1–3 nights or €70 for 4–7 nights; Towels and infusion oil are included.
The UNESCO Vessertal Biosphere Reserve is right on your doorstep and offers countless hiking opportunities. In winter, 70 km of groomed cross-country trails and various ski runs beckon. Culture enthusiasts can quickly reach the historic cities of Erfurt, Weimar, and the theater city of Meiningen.
Tourism Fee not included
A Tourism Fee is a mandatory fee that you have to pay when visiting certain tourism areas in Germany. The fee is not included in the price because it depends on where you stay, how many nights you stay, how old you are and if you're bringing your dog. The fee usually varies between €0 and €4 per adult per night, but may be 5% in certain areas, such as Berlin. It should be settled with the host upon arrival.

As a passionate nature lover and craftsman specializing in fireplace construction, I designed this chalet with great attention to detail. The use of local birch wood and natural materials was particularly important to me. I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm for the region and providing hiking tips so that my guests can fully experience the beauty of the Thuringian Forest.
