    The path climbs steeply and historic border stones from 1729 show that you are now directly on the Hessian-Bavarian border path. The effort of the climb is followed, assuming good visibility, by a brilliant panoramic view from the observation tower, which is almost 24 meters high and has 122 steps. From the summit, a grassy path leads downhill and straight to the almost 600 meter high Kleine Haube.

      Now I've managed to get on the hood, I have to say the tower is pretty high, but also a great view of my local mountain Dreistelz. at 2 degrees below zero with sun but very fresh wind, the tower even wobbles a little bit.

        From here you can already see on Friday who is coming to visit on Monday...😏... it's amazing that such ideas are still being implemented from time to time... but an engineer did not plan this thing... he would have mentioned all 135 steps that were built here and not typed 122 on the board that describes the tower...☝️😊
