The Barigauer Tower is an observation tower on the Barigauer Höhe near Barigau, a district of Königsee in the Saalfeld-Rudolstadt district of Thuringia. Built in 1912, it offers impressive panoramic views of the region from a height of 664.6 meters. On a clear day, you can see over 43 villages, towns, and famous mountain peaks from here, including the Schneekopf near Ilmenau and the Leuchtenburg Castle in Kahla. Next to the tower, there is a restaurant that welcomes hikers and visitors.

Yay, a bicycle-friendly station with large elevators. Thank you.

A worthwhile excursion destination has been reopened. I can't form an opinion about Essen yet.

The inn will reopen on June 1, 2024: https://www.barigauer-turm.de/.

The Eisenberg is a must for me when I hike here. The Eisenberg always looks clean and well-kept. It is also one of the few mountains with a cross.

Greifenstein Castle had no strategic importance after it was built, but what's left is very nice to look at. That's fine too.

Very nice view of the valley, great rest area and summit cross.
