Ilmenberg

Ilmenberg is a mountain in Bavaria with a height of around 787 meters in the Langen Rhön region. The peak's geological structure consists of basalt and tuff.

The mountain once had a ski lift on its eastern slope that operated from the Thüringer Hütte and attracted winter sports enthusiasts. This facility shaped the area's character in earlier times.

The mountain is part of the Rhön region, where established hiking paths connect multiple peaks and shape the local landscape. Visitors can walk trails that have long defined how people move through this area.

The climb requires no technical equipment and is suitable for regular hikers. The surrounding nature reserves are accessible and offer routes for different skill levels.

The basalt and tuff layers of the mountain reveal the volcanic past of the Rhön region in a striking way. These rock types make the mountain an interesting place to explore the natural history of the area.
