If you want to enjoy excellent Thuringian forest cuisine, you should visit the restaurant (and guesthouse) Am Waldrand in Schleusingen. This cult and rustic inn specializes in culinary delights based around the Thuringian dumpling, serving sauerbraten, leg of goose or roulade from Friday to Sunday. Smaller hearty dishes round off the menu wonderfully.

The location close to the forest and hiking trails and the possibility to stay longer in the guesthouse and the associated vacation homes make the house a permanent institution for Schleusingen tourism.
