Crossing point on the Kasseler Kuppe, from here you have the option: 1. Direction Bransrode quarry (on the way you can also make a detour to the highest Meißner point) .... or 2. Direction Kalbe / Kalbesee / Frau Holle Teich / Eulenstieg ... or 3rd in the direction of the transmitter towers / Naturfeundehaus / parking lots

From this vantage point—formerly a 2 x 2 x 6-foot pedestal stone—Professor Christian Ludwig Gerling observed the angles between the directions of 11 survey points of the main triangular network of the Electorate of Hesse's triangulation system in 1836: Inselsberg, Milseburg, Knüll, Amöneburg, Hohelohr, Weidelsberg, Herkules, Desenberg, Staufenberg, Hohenhagen, and Göttingen.

You should treat yourself to this short extension of the P1 and hike to the intersection of Kasseler Kuppe with the trigonometric point and refuge (approx. 400m more).
