トレプガストの絶景の山頂・トップ8

impressive cross and the story behind it

In memory of the refugees who found rest and help on the Bindlacher Berg, the cross is from 2002

The Prinz-Rupprechtturm (Prince Rupprecht Tower) is a 14-meter-high observation tower belonging to the @Fichtelgebirgsverein e.V. (Fichtel Mountain Association) on the 596-meter-high Wolfenberg mountain. It offers a beautiful view of the Hof region to the north, especially when the leaves aren't on the trees. Otherwise, it's unfortunately heavily overgrown. This is unsightly, but unfortunately, due to the property ownership situation, it can't be remedied. Those who want to look out into the countryside to the east and south can walk or cycle along the dirt road on the southern slope of the Wolfenberg towards Köslar.

The summit cross high above Bad Berneck

There is a rest area at the Hohe Warte. The lookout tower has been removed. I saved a picture from 2016 as a reminder (picture no. 41). Now there is only a cross at this point.

Even without a view, a good photo motif with an information notice.

The observation tower is not recommended. It is totally overgrown and offers practically no view.

The summit cross was placed on a small plateau, which I suspect is still not the highest point of the mountain. Through a small gap in the bushes you can see Bindlach and Bayreuth.
