At 630m, the Soisberg is the highest mountain in the Hessian skittles game. The striking mountain catches the eye even from afar. The 25m high lookout tower cannot be overlooked either. The extinct volcano is located near Soislieden in the Hessian districts of Hersfeld-Rotenburg and Fulda. 🌋🔭🗼

The Soisberg ⛰ in the Hessian bowling game can be easily reached from many starting points. Whether on foot with the whole family or by bike. The fastest way leads from Soislieden to the summit, on which there is even a lookout tower! A little longer, about 8km, starts a circular route in Ufhausen. Parking spaces can be found in Soislieden in the village or at the cemetery and in Ufhausen in the center of the village or at the DGH. A worthwhile destination for everyone in every season! ☃️🌞

In 1895 the first Soisberg tower (8 m) was built using wood. In 1955 the tower was renewed by the Federal Border Guard to a height of 13.5 m. Later this tower had to be closed because it was dilapidated.
In 1997 the foundation stone for a new tower was laid by the "Bürgerinitiative Aussichtsturm Soisberg eV" with the support of the communities of Eiterfeld, Schenklengsfeld and Hohenroda. On May 1st, 2004, the steel-construction observation tower with a height of 25 m was inaugurated. (... from information board)
