ヴァイタースバッハの絶景の山頂・トップ4

This legendary place lies between gnarled trees and jagged rocks – with a simple wooden sign, yet a mystical aura. The name "Witches' Dance Ground" lends the scene a very unique atmosphere, which is particularly intense in the frosty winter. A quiet, slightly eerie place with a sense of historical magic. 💡 Tip 🔮 Stand for a moment in the middle of the square – history can almost be felt in the quiet snow.

The Idarkopf offers excellent panoramic views over the surrounding Hunsrück heights. The new Idarkopf tower, a hybrid construction made of wood and hot-dip galvanized steel, was opened in December 2022 after the previous wooden tower, which was damaged by fire in 2018, was demolished in February 2022.

Place in front of a rock wall. There are also witches' dance places elsewhere, for example in the Harz and near Annweiler.

The observation tower on the Idarkopf mountain in the Saar-Hunsrück Nature Park, located in the EdelSteinLand region, offers breathtaking panoramic views from its height of over 30 meters. The original tower was destroyed by fire in 2018; now, a hybrid structure made of construction timber and hot-dip galvanized steel graces the summit.

Very high tower that looks out over the tops of the coniferous forest. A worthwhile challenge for those who do not have a head for heights through the grid steps. On a bike tour, it's also nice to use your muscles in a different way and then explore the high forest or the Hahnenbach valley.

The new observation tower is a real eye-catcher. The platform is modeled on a bird's nest. 170 steps lead up. Those who are not afraid of heights will be rewarded with a great 360° panorama.

The Idarkopf (746m) is certainly the most famous peak in the Hunsrück Idarwald. This certainly has a lot to do with the fact that there has long been a lookout tower here that offers a wide view over the Rhenish Slate Mountains. From the Idarkopf tower you have a wide view over the landscape: to the Großer Feldberg (881m) in the Taunus, the Donnersberg (669m) in the Palatinate mountains, to the Hohe Acht (747m) in the Eifel, the Fuchskaute (657m) in the Westerwald and of course to the Erbeskopf (816m). However, the Idarkopf is not the highest mountain in the Idarwald. It is located a little further south on the ridge in the transition to the Hunsrück High Forest and is called An den zwei Steinen (766m).

There are two medieval neck moats on the Wildenburger Kopf, which effectively cut through the plateau. This is where the Hexentanzplatz is located. The name comes from the vernacular. Certainly or probably this has its origin in old cults from the Middle Ages.
