The Red Cross is a 688 meter high pass in the Hochtaunus (not to be confused with the "Gasthaus zum Roten Kreuz").
It connects the Weiltal with the Vordertaunus and has been used since time immemorial (long before the Romans).
The top of the pass is marked with a (name-giving) red sandstone cross! Further information: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotes_Kreuz_(Taunus)?oldformat=true

Classic. No matter which bike - a must in the Taunus!

Nice restaurant to take a break on the climb. The way up here is a bit steep and therefore a bit exhausting and the restaurant is therefore very welcome 😄
