Tips

Witwe Bolte

February 1, 2019

The Fürstberg is a west-east running ridge ("ridge") with about 700 m in length. At the western end is the highest point at 373 m. Here is also an old quarry.
Unfortunately, the point is overgrown with forest and thus without a view. Now, in winter, I was able to peer through the trees in good visibility to the south and identify the Nuremberg castle, TV tower and the chimney of waste incineration. So there is a direct line of sight to Nuremberg 40 km away. The view to the east would be fantastic, if possible.
The place would be ideal for a lookout tower!

Edit: on the Fürstberg also used to run the border between the Bishopric of Bamberg and the margraviate Bayreuth.
