The Friedrichsturm stands on the Badener Höhe. The tower with 168 steps offers an excellent view of the Rhine plain. There are a few places to sit and a shelter right next to the Friedrichsturm.

Nice hike on a great mountain view + tower. Great nature experience!

The old tower was renovated and repaired several times and will soon be 130 years old. He is extremely popular and shows the high altitude of the northern Black Forest very impressive and undisguised.

Maren wonderfully described all the facts. Top! Before Lothar, my hikes to the tower always looked the same. Dark dark through the narrow spruce and fir trees along the way and only immediately in front of the tower, it was light and you could see the truly beautiful stone tower. At night walks in my youth, this was all the more impressive. Nevertheless, I find the view today from the rest area very nice why I have adjusted to the many great pictures of the tower a few that show the impressive nature here in the northern Black Forest around the height.

One of the best views over the Northern Black Forest is definitely from up here. I think a must.

A spiral staircase in the tower takes you up 35 steps to the lower viewing platform, and another 133 steps lead to the upper platform.

Via a spiral staircase in the tower one arrives after 35 steps to the lower observation platform, which lies above the oblique supporting pillars in approximately 6.5 m height. Another 133 steps lead to the upper platform, on which the staircase exit is protected by a lockable metal superstructure.

Grandiose panorama in good weather conditions.

Perfect mountain for surroundings and direction Rhine Valley with free tower.
Very interesting how the windworm surfaces of Vivian, Wiebke 1990 and Lothar develop in 1999 - finally more deciduous forest, not always this spruce monoculture as in the northern Black Forest unfortunately still common ...
