The Scheinberg is 498 m above sea level. NHN the highest mountain in the Steigerwald. It is northeast of Ippesheim in the district of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim in Middle Franconia. To the north runs the border to the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen. Unfortunately, there is no board, bench or anything up there. Somehow surprising for the highest mountain in the Steigerwald.
