When people visit Eisenach for the Wartburg but miss this gorge just south of town πŸ‰πŸŒΏ Dragon Gorge (Drachenschlucht) is a canyon with moss-covered rock walls so close together you can almost touch both sides, and at its narrowest it’s only about 68 cm (just over 2 feet) wide. A stream runs right under your feet, covered by metal grates so you stay dry the whole way πŸ’§ It’s named after a legend that a dragon once lived in its damp passages, and it truly feels like walking through a fairytale. πŸ“ Drachenschlucht, Eisenach, Thuringia πŸ₯Ύ About 2.5 km, roughly 1.5 hrs uphill or 1 hr downhill πŸš— Park at Mariental or Hohe Sonne, both on the B19 ⚠️ The gorge can close after storms, heavy rain, or ice, so check with the Eisenach tourist office before you go Add this to your Germany list πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ #drachenschlucht #eisenach #thuringia #germanytravel #visitgermany
