ポッテンシュタインの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Climbing rocks in the forest and viewing platform

The Neubürg table mountain is the second highest elevation in the region at 587 meters, after the Sophienberg (593 meters). It is located in the Mistelgau municipality. The Neubürg was formed in the Jurassic period. The top layer consists of limestone, followed by Ornatenton and iron sandstone. The Neubürg is called a table mountain because it has a flat table surface instead of a dome. Due to the erosion-related formation, the Neubürg is also called an island or witness mountain. It stands like an island in the further eroded environment and "witnesses" the rock layers that previously covered the entire area.

For climbers, the name Wailing Wall says it all. Anyone who tries to dig into the tiny holes here can quickly find themselves complaining. The rock is up to seven meters high and is part of the Signal Stone.

There is a bench just below the tower. Ideal for snacks.

Nice rest area unfortunately closed

From Betzenstein you can see it from afar.

With its new (built in 2012), 12-meter-high observation tower, the Hohe Kreuz – the highest point of the "hollow mountain" (522 + 12 m) – is now on par with the Adlerstein in height. The view extends over 270° from the Wiesent Valley with the Neideck, across the Aufseß Valley, to the Ochsenkopf in the Fichtel Mountains, and eastward into the Upper Palatinate region – on a clear day! https://www.fraenkische-schweiz.com/detail/id=5f5773735f7f9b38066ef2d9
