    A new observation tower (a steel/wooden construction) was built on the Zabelstein 2 years ago. You have a great all-round view and boards describe what you can see. At the foot of the tower is a semi-open hut with a few benches and tables that provide shelter in bad weather. There are also toilets in another hut.

        The Zabelstein is the highest point in the northern Steigerwald. From the observation tower you have a great view of the Rhön and Thuringia. Next to the ruins is the hiking hut of the Steigerwald Club, which celebrates its mountain festival on May 1st every year.
