The circular hike takes you to the "Kleiner Kranichsee" nature reserve. This is one of the best-preserved moors in the upper low mountain regions. But it is not only the Kleiner Kranichsee that is worth seeing, the hiking trail takes you to Oberjugel, a district of Johanngeorgenstadt, where you can enjoy a wonderful view. Another new attraction on the circular hiking trail is the educational plant trail at the Henneberg restaurant. Here you can see plants that otherwise only grow in the raised bogs. Marking: white-yellow-white ATTENTION: From October 2021, the hike will be signposted as "Rundwanderweg Henneberg/Oberjugel".
