Below the Heinrichshöhe is the most spacious resting place on the panorama trail. Here is also one of the best views of the old town of Gelnhausen. On the mountain side there is also a view of the rock walls of the former quarry.

Hiking

In the town of Gelnhausen, the Lower Buntsandstein (Lower Triassic sandstone) overlies the clay-rich layers of the Zechstein period, a marine deposit locally known as "Bröckelschiefer" (crumbly slate), now considered part of the Fulda Formation.

The springs in the town emerge at the boundary between the Bröckelschiefer and the Buntsandstein.

Many of Gelnhausen's house wells are also located in the Bröckelschiefer.
