Here you make a real border experience - the Schlossberg has two peaks - one on the German and one on the French side. The border runs over the saddle in between. And right at the border there is still a refuge, the refuge Kaiser-Wilhelm-Stein. What is your snack time? Rather red wine and baguette or at least Saumagen and beer? ;)

The border between Germany and France.
You only see a landmark with the letters and the number of landmarks.
Practically boundless you can go through the circular walk of the castle and rock path here.

As Thorsten already noted, not only does the question of baguette and red wine or saumagen and beer arise, but also which of the stones is the Kaiser Wilhelm Stein? I think it's the big one. 😉

The refuge Kaiser-Wilhelm-Stein is massively built and ideal for a rest even in bad weather.
It is located on the border Germany - France.
Here clearly a green border ...

If you do not know, you will notice the signs of the trails at best.
The world should be so limitless! Whether baguette or wake. ;-)

The "Kaiser-Wilhelm-Stein" "marks" the border between Germany and France:

- Refuge in the immediate vicinity

Too bad, this is exactly where I had to go back. I would have loved to walk on the Sonnenweg to Hohenburg.
