View from Walter-Guilleaume Hut (Geisberg)

Stone Pyramids on Nonnenstromberg Summit

Highlight • Summit

Only a small path leads over the Nonnenstromberg. But he is then quite easy to find: the long-distance hiking trail Rheinsteig leads along it. We simply follow the Rhine entry sign.

Köppel Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ascent is definitely worthwhile in good weather. The view after climbing the tower is indescribable. In addition, a nice descent awaits mountain bikers, such as the continuation to the alarm pole.

Is worth a trip. :-)
