    Hiking

    Here, you'll find an information board with a summit register and stamping station, as well as a trigonometric point.

    A trigonometric point (TP) or triangulation point is an observation point in a national survey or a larger triangular network. With its coordinates and markings (stabilization in the terrain), it forms an essential basis for geodesy and cartography. Surveyors involved in triangulation were formerly known as trigonometers.

    On topographic maps, TPs are marked as small triangles. In the field, such points serve for geodetic follow-up measurements, their precise orientation, and as fixed points for local surveys.
