    Hiking

    Great view over Baden-Baden, the surrounding Northern Black Forest, but also with a distant view over the Rhine plain to the Vosges and the Palatinate Forest.

    Hiking

    The journey on the Merkur mountain railway is not long, but you are rewarded with truly impressive views at the top! We leisurely strolled the last few meters up to the summit and enjoyed the view over the Rhine Valley and the Black Forest.

    Hiking

    Hiking trails or the Merkurbahn (fee required) lead here..
    Great view, and with a bit of luck you can also watch paragliders.
    The Merkur Tower has an elevator, but you still have to walk up/down some steps (spiral staircase)..
    Visiting the tower is free
