Mountaineering

The Altkönig (798m) is the third highest peak of the Taunus. It is located in the city of Kronberg halfway to Oberreifenberg in the Feldberg area. He owes his name not monarchical roots, but the old Celtic term alkin, which means height.

Apart from a few weathered picnic tables and this sign, there has fortunately been very little interference with nature up here. This means that you can enjoy the untouched landscape and the Altkönig ring wall to the fullest. I am happy every time I arrive up here.
