ヴァルトカペルの絶景の山頂・トップ16

From the Kalbe summit, the path continues to a boulder field. From there, the panoramic view is even more extensive than from the surrounding vantage points. While there are no benches or shade, this spot is still ideal for a scenic break. I would have liked to mark this spot on the map, but Komoot prohibits it. For whatever reason.

In Carl-Christoph Schmieder's Frau Holle stories, Frau Holle transforms drunken young men into calves and then lets them graze on the "Kalbe" (calf). Before the open-cast lignite mining, there really was a large meadow there. The name "Kalbe" can be explained geologically: the mountain calves, meaning large boulders of basalt broke off from the plateau and piled up on the slope. Or quite simply: bare spot. The viewpoint at 720 m above sea level can only be reached on foot from the Frau Holle Pond via the Kalbe Trail or the Eulenstieg Trail. It is also located on the P1 Hoher Meißner premium trail.

The approximately 20 m high tower is an absolute highlight. You have a gigantic all-round view from above. Definitely worth a visit.

The first lookout tower here on Mice Mountain was made of wood and was inaugurated in 1937. In 1955 it was closed because it had become dilapidated. In 1964 the old wooden tower was replaced by a 19m high steel lattice construction. Source: Info App Geonaturpark Frauholleland Great all-round view and: be sure to enter it in the summit book!

Nice view over the Frau Holle Land.

Imposing boulder with a bench surrounded by a beautiful landscape. An almost mystical place. Great!

An imposing building with a good view... The way there is very varied 🍁🍃🍂🍃
