Here at the Stephanskuppe you have a very nice view of the surroundings, from here you can see far into the Sinntal, you can see Schwarzenfels Castle and can see far as far as Schlüchtern, up here you will find the rather rare Rhöndisteln, a hike around the Stephanskuppe is definitely worth it, as you can hike from here in all directions, such as the three castle trails (with the 🏰 Schwarzenfels, Brandenburg and Steckelsburg) and many other hiking options.

The Stephanskuppe nature reserve is a refuge for some rare or at least unusual plants in this area. For example, numerous silver thistles are native here.
