          From the summit of the Öchsenberg you have a wonderful panoramic view down into the valley to the Werra or across to the Rhön and Thuringian Forest mountain ranges.

            If you stand at the top of the Celtic Cross, you really have a magnificent view of the Kuppenrhön, the Knüll and the Thuringian Forest! A little caution in strong winds...

              Breathtaking view over the Rhön, the Hessian Kegelspiel, the salt mountains and all the way to the Hoher Meißner.
