The Scharlachkopf is not a separate mountain, but part of the Rochusberg near Bingen, and lies at an elevation of approximately 246 meters above sea level. The elongated ridge of the Rochusberg, which also includes the Scharlachkopf, dominates the townscape of Bingen and offers striking vantage points. I wish I'd brought my binoculars...
