Hauptwanderweg Eisenach – Wernigerode (blaues Andreaskreuz)

Eisenach – Mühlhausen – Sondershausen – Kyffhäuser – Kelbra – Nordhausen – Wernigerode

Covering 63.9 km, this is a true long-distance trail best approached as a multi-day journey through varied terrain.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. Follow the ZW waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

As a National Walking Network (NWN) trail, this route represents a nationally recognised hiking corridor. Infrastructure and waymarking are maintained at a high standard.
