In any case, go up to the rock and enjoy the distant view from Beilstein!🤩 Playful trail.😊 Increasingly overgrown towards the end - "enchanted character"😉

The good Horst is after all the highest elevation in the northern Spessart. Thanks to a path of forestry work, there is even a view to the east. Otherwise, in addition to two radio towers, there is one thing above all: peace!

The Beilstein is a 499.5 m above sea level. NHN high mountain in the Spessart. It lies east of the road from Bad Orb into the Jossatal between Villbach and Lettgenbrunn in the municipality of Jossgrund in the Main-Kinzig district of Hesse. The Beilstein is a basalt cone with the largest basalt cave in the Main-Kinzig district. The formation was formed by volcanic eruptions 10 to 20 million years ago; the surrounding red sandstone, which otherwise characterizes the Spessart, is around 200 million years older. The basalt breach was exposed by erosion; The typical basalt columns and smaller, spherical structures can be seen on the rock walls. On the mountain, which was first mentioned in a document in 1059, are the remains of the small, medieval hilltop castle of Beilstein. It was built to protect the possessions of the archbishopric of Mainz and to control an old road, and was first mentioned in 1343. It was also intended to protect the first glassworks that were established. When rule passed to the Counts of Hanau, the castle probably lost its importance and has since fallen into disrepair. Due to the poor source situation, little is known about the castle. Today the complex consists only of a ring of walls about 12 meters long. Source: Wikipedia

Very nice combo with the golf course trail and Don Bosco, so to speak the traily variant of the WAB towards Don Bosco. Very worthwhile dangling through the Beilstein (former castle) - it's worth walking around - continue on trails to Lettgenbrunn and again trailig from Lettgenbrunn back to the flow trail. You can also drive the other way around, but the circumnavigation is more suitable here. Be sure to climb the Beilstein - not for the view, but rather to get a feel for the facility.

Status 2023: slowly growing towards the end with blackberries.

The Horstberg was once an important trigonometric point These points are dying out. They used to be important points of land surveying. They are usually found on prominent mountains. But prominent structures such as church towers can also be trigonometric points. With the advent of satellite technology and GPS, they lost their importance.

Very nice place to take a break
