Alteburg Tower

At an altitude of around 620 meters, the Alteburg is one of the highest mountains in the Soonwald. On top of the wooded summit stands since 1893, the 20-meter high lookout tower. In addition to the observation deck, this also has a small shelter. The platform is freely accessible at all times and offers you a wonderful view over the wide landscape.

Just a few meters from the lookout tower is also the trekking site Alteburg on a former Köhlerplatz. All information about the trekking site can be found at soonwaldsteig.de/trekkingcamps/die-camps/trekkingcamp-alteburg.

Beautiful tower with a great view!

The 20 m high Alteburgturm has stood on the Alteburg summit since 1893 and was built as a lookout tower by the Soonwald Club; today it is owned by the Hunsrück Association. It is a listed building and is freely accessible. Two stairs on the outside of the tower lead to the high entrance on the opposite side, followed by a spiral staircase with 67 steps to the covered viewing platform.

When the weather is good, the view here is really great!

Especially at an early or late hour in beautiful soft light a dream.
The tower is located on the Soonwaldsteig and is ideal for a rest.
