バートエムスターの絶景の山頂・トップ20

With its striking shape, the Hoher Dörnberg is the landmark of the Habichtswald Nature Park, where archaeological finds confirm settlement during the Ice Age. Its geology and cultural history, as well as its unique flora and fauna, have long attracted many people. Species-rich juniper heaths, the treeless plateau, and the striking Helfensteine rocks offer a diverse range of hiking opportunities.

The Hohe Dörnberg was selected in 2020 by the Presidium for Geosciences and Geotechnologies and certified with the title "National Geotope"! This award has been presented since 2006. There are a total of 77 significant geotopes in Germany, ten of which are in Hesse. – The Hoher Dörnberg is one of them! He is thus in a row with the "Chalk Cliffs on Rügen" or the "Grube Messel".

Easy to hike mountain peak with a great view. The summit tour is to be embedded in a beautiful circular hike. Flyers for the possible path constellations are available in the nature park center at the Helfensteinen. The stamping point for the summiteers of North Hesse is also located near the summit.

Once you are at the top, you will be rewarded with a fantastic view of Uppland, Kellerwald and Habichtswald.

A windy affair. In strong winds, it whistles through the loopholes 🌬️

A nice view after a hard driveway.

The Weidelsburg was one of the most important castles in the Landgraviate of Hesse in the late Middle Ages. You reach the imposing castle ruins via a narrow serpentine path. In the gigantic east tower you can reach the viewing platform via a staircase and enjoy the magnificent panorama from there. There is also a small kiosk here with a hoisted flag showing when it is open. Mostly this is on Sundays and public holidays.

It goes up steeply, at the top there is a great view and plenty of space for a rest
