After about 100 steps, you have climbed the viewing platform and enjoy from here a great view of Hunsrück, Taunus and the Middle Rhine Valley. Since the tower has a roof, you can endure it here even in the rain.

The Salzkopfturm is the highest point in the Bingen Forest. Great viewing platform; It is definitely worth walking up the many stairs. In the vicinity there are many small trails for hiking or biking.
Get out and enjoy nature!
