At 619 meters above sea level, the Kalte Herberge is the highest mountain in the Rheingau. There used to be not much to see up here except for the summit sign, but now a view has opened up due to a wind break and subsequent clearing.

Great view in good weather as far as Rheinhessen, although "unfortunately" only possible due to the heavy deforestation in the wake of a hurricane and the stress of the drought.

There is not much to see here.
But since it is the highest point in the Rheingau, it makes it so special.
