Tips
The Rauhe Kulm rises 682 metres high from the middle of the landscape and is visible from all directions. The exposed basalt slopes are a valuable habitat for numerous animals and rare plants. Around 90 different lichens and mosses grow and thrive on the heat-storing basalt boulders. The Rauhe Kulm has been protected as a natural monument since 1909 and has been a nature reserve in accordance with European standards (FFH) for several years. In 2013, the Rauhe Kulm was voted Germany's most beautiful natural wonder.

Partly steep and impassable across the basalt field but peppered with beautiful views.
