The only real panoramic mountain on Götzner municipal area.
Not really a "summit", but it guarantees great views of the entire Rhine Valley, 2 well-known via ferratas, great meadows for picnicking and sunbathing and 2 or 3 very good inns in the immediate vicinity. If you hike down via spall on the ridge of the Kapf towards Meschach, you come to a cutting edge in the forest towards the valley, which is often used by paragliders and hang-gliders as a departure point.
Ideal place for a rest in summer up to the summit ....
PS: From Millrütte the "summit" can also be reached in approx. 30 minutes for unsporting or slightly frail people via harmless forest and meadow paths.

Nice viewing and resting place. But you are rarely alone here.
