Not very long, but very nice path. Partially almost alpine-like. On the northern Trampler view of the Großer Feldberg.

The white wall got its name from the quartzite blocks, which shine white in the sunlight. They have freed themselves from the mother rock by continuous frost blasting and are lying, since they are relatively young in geological terms, without covering vegetation.

The view of the Great Feldberg is simply awesome.

Quartzite field created by frost blasting in the Ice Age.

Very nice lap with a lot of difference in height but unfortunately little seating. Rest stop on Fuchstanz or at the end of the rune a delicious meal in the restaurant "Waldtraut" in Oberursel.

The area around the White Wall has something mystical. Part of barren bare stones, while on the other hand everything is overgrown with moss. The view of the Great Feldberg is also a highlight.
Sturdy shoes and surefootedness are a prerequisite. With or after rain the steep ascent / descent over Wurzen and z. T. loose stones arduous because it is very slippery.

The White Wall in the Taunus is a quartzite field on the Altkönig created in the Ice Age, which was created by frost blasting. It is at a maximum of 634 m.
Beautiful trails around it with a view of the large Feldberg (if not fogged as always).
In the snow especially XD knows

Even in fog a nice way. Although not a clear view, but beautifully mystical with the mossy trees. However, I found it difficult to find the way.

Always beautiful. Great view of the Feldberg. Nothing grows on the quartzite rock.

Ordinary shoes should be worn there already. And be careful, if you descend the trail down, by many MBiker the ground is very crumbly / slippery.

Sure-footedness and sturdy shoes are recommended. The path runs partly over loose scree and is not always easy to find. The view of the Feldbergkamm is great, especially in sunny weather.
When the sun shines directly on the scree field, you can also be nicely fried, with top and bottom heat :-).

One of the most beautiful hiking trails in the Taunus with a great view of the Feldberg

The white wall already has something surreal. Real highlight!

The small steep path past the White Wall should be rather high instead of running down when it is a bit damp. On the stones it can be a bit slippery.

The view is awesome, the way over the stones a bit of clinging ....

Very nice hike and a wonderful view of the Taunus

It's always nice to be here. The view is terrific. one of my favorite places in the Taunus.

The white wall reminds a little of the sea of rocks in small. The view towards Feldberg is beautiful, the ascent through the scree is easy to do.
