The Zimmerberg has a summit height of 629.7 m above sea level. HN and rises about 200 meters above the foreland in the western part of the Thuringian Forest .

The Tabarz area offered the medieval old streets a relatively easy climb to the top of the pass on the Kleiner Inselsberg. The Ochsenweg and Schnepfenweg rose on the eastern slope of the Zimmerberg, while the Neue Weg runs on the western flank.

The first spa house with a promenade was built here.
