The Steinberg with its 495 meters altitude is a popular destination. Once you have reached its summit, you can enter your name in the summit book. It's in a box on the summit cross.
A few meters further is Hexenplatz, there is also something to see here.

A mystical place, especially when there is fog, which moves through the deciduous forest to the summit cross. When the weather is nice, a shady place to take a break with a view of the Vogelsberg.

Interested parties place next to a wind turbine, there is also a bench nearby to take a break, and you can let your gaze wander into the distance.
