    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 tower is closed again and has to be extensively renovated, it is uncertain whether it will reopen this summer, expert opinions have to be obtained first (Mainzer Allgemeine Zeitung of March 16, 2022)

        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!
