Description
The Farnberg hut with glazed veranda and the garden have been designed by us with much love, just as we would wish for ourselves. For the healthiest possible living environment, we have used mostly natural and traditional materials from the region. Nestled in the beautiful nature of the Thuringian Forest, you can relax or actively explore the Thuringian herb and olities region, the Schwarzatal, or the Rennsteig region. A cozy living room with pellet stove, underfloor heating, and the integrated fitted kitchen (without oven), a bedroom with double bed (1.80m x 2m), and the modern bathroom are designed for 2 people. In the garden you have sunny and shady seating options and, of course, your own grill.
The new and spacious solid wood sauna with relaxation area on the ground floor of the cabin invites you to relax after a day of hiking or in cool weather (for a fee). You are practically sauna bathing in the middle of nature with a view of greenery and can decide on site how to use it.
You can find more information and pictures on our homepage orange-way.com or by searching the internet for Farnberghütte.
We look forward to your visit and your inquiries.

Location and surroundings of object
Secluded location on the outskirts of Lichtenhain an der Bergbahn (town of Schwarzatal) on the southern slope, in immediate proximity to forest and meadows, with a magnificent unobstructed view of nature.
You can set off directly from the cabin on foot, by bike, with snowshoes or skis, or let your soul unwind in the garden, on the terrace, and in the veranda. Due to the central location, day trips to the culturally and historically significant cities of Thuringia, such as Weimar 55 km, Erfurt 55 km, Rudolstadt 30 km, Arnstadt 35 km, Gotha 70 km, Eisenach 100 km, Coburg 60 km, Kronach 60 km, and Bamberg 100 km, with their museums, residences, and old towns, are also possible.
Ski and snowboard fans, like us, enjoy themselves after a short drive at the ski facilities in Steinach, Tettau, Heubach, and on the Rennsteig, or on the ski trails and cross-country tracks in the surrounding area. For tours through the snowy Thuringian Forest, we also rent out snowshoes and, of course, provide tips and our personal recommendations. Lichtenhain Bergbahn, a small, quiet village in the Thuringian Forest, known for the famous 100-year-old "Oberweißbacher Berg- und Schwarzatalbahn," the nearby romantic Schwarzatal and the Rennsteig, has always been a popular holiday destination. The clean air and the open, sunny location on a mountain ridge, as well as the surrounding forests and mountain herb meadows, provide the best conditions for a relaxing holiday.
In the area there is an extensive, well-marked network of hiking and cycling trails and unique herb nature trails. The Oberweißbacher Mountain and Schwarzatal Railway can be perfectly integrated into route planning and is also ideal for the return journey after extended tours. Here, vacation without mass tourism amidst nature is not just a promise; here everyone finds their favorite spot to relax.

additional information about rental price:
| Due to the ongoing Corona hygiene regulations, rising minimum wage and energy costs from autumn 2022, we unfortunately had to increase the accommodation prices and cleaning fee. The cleaning fee is now 55€, but we can hand over our Farnberghütte to our guests with a very good conscience and spotlessly clean. At the moment the minimum rental period is 5 days in low season, 7 days in high season or on request. In the summer season and on holidays, we allow ourselves to give preference to stays with a minimum rental period of 1 week, arrival and departure at the weekend. Our rental prices always include energy costs and laundry package, so there are no further additional costs for you. Please contact us with your specific holiday request. You will receive a confirmation of availability and the binding total price at short notice. For exclusive use of the log sauna on the ground floor of the Farnberghütte, there is an optional additional charge (30€ for first use, 25€ from 2nd use). Since February 2019, a guest card of 2€/P/N is issued, with the integrated Thuringian Forest Card you receive extensive discounts in the region, free travel on the local bus network and the Schwarzatalbahn. |

Vacation week
We spent a week with our dog in their beautiful holiday home Cabin 2 and felt very comfortable. Mr. Klingsporn welcomed us very kindly. The holiday home is beautifully furnished with many details and very cozy. We enjoyed the terrace with the small lawn in the nice weather. In short, this holiday home is a lovely gem and we would love to come back.

Top holiday home in nature
A top holiday home for two people. The holiday home is very well maintained and technically up to date both inside and outside. A very well-kept completely fenced garden with a cozy seating area and loungers is also available, ideal for dog owners. The view into the valley is truly great. The landlord is very friendly, and everything such as Wi-Fi, electricity, water, and heating is included. Parking is only 20 meters away. We will definitely come back to this beautiful area and this top holiday home.

Vacation with Dog
The cabin is perfect for two people even with a large dog. The garden is cozy and quiet, you can spend your vacation here quite relaxed. We had our bikes with us, but we wouldn't have gotten far without "E".

Great hut
The Farnberghütte is a beautiful oasis for relaxing in nature. The cabin is perfectly and practically equipped. And the icing on the cake is the sauna.
We and our dog felt very comfortable here and are looking forward to coming back.
