Highest elevation sounds worse than it is. Once you are on the Kolonnenweg, the climb is quite easy.

Arrived at the top, the ascent from Lindewerra is not to be scoffed at!

Great view which is of course even better in winter. When descending on some parts of the route, however, it is very slippery. In the morning everything is frozen rock hard and then the sun shines and it thaws on the surface. Then it's a slide.

Coming from Hanstein Castle on the way to the Teufelskanzel, you have 2 options. The steep path on the right leads to the highest point of the Höhenberg, the Junkerkuppe. It is 511 m above sea level.

This highlight is on the premium hiking trail 16 (P16). From here you have a wonderful view over the forests and mountains. It is certainly most beautiful in spring and summer, when the trees are blooming in beautiful green, as well as in golden autumn with colorful foliage.

Apparently, the point marked with the stone and plaque is NOT the highest elevation: you can see it about 160 meters further towards the column path

The first castle on the Rusteberg was first mentioned in a document in 1123, but was already destroyed again in 1160. Subsequent buildings and extensions by the archbishops of Mainz were carried out from the 12th century. In 1749 and 1750 the administration built Rusteberg Castle. In connection with this, the demolition of the previously intact castle began in order to use the stones as building material.

The path is partially overgrown. But the goal is worth it. With a bench to sit on, you can really enjoy the view here

The mountain is located in the western part of the Eichsfeld district near the state border with Hesse. Viewed clockwise, it lies between the small towns of Asbach-Sickenberg in the south and south-west, Dietzenrode-Vatterode in the west and north-west, Mackenrode and Henningerode in the north-east. The nearest cities are Bad Sooden-Allendorf (Hessen) (4 kilometers to the south-west) and Heilbad Heiligenstadt (Thuringia) (about 12 km to the north-east). The Wanfried Agreement in 1945 led to a shift in the American-Soviet zone border and with it the later Thuringian-Hessian state border. This is how the towns of Asbach-Sickenberg, Vatterode, Weidenbach and the associated mountain came to Thuringia. The mountain is therefore not part of the historic Eichsfeld. The inner-German border ran south of the mountain and can still be seen at the Schifflersgrund border museum near Asbach-Sickenberg.

Great view as a reward for the steep climb

The Junkerkuppe is the highest point on the ridge path between the 🏰Hanstein Castle and the Teufelskanzel 😈. There are different ways to get to the ridge path, such as: B. the former Kolonnenweg up to Ministerblick and then on to Junkerkuppe. Or across the pond at Lindewerra and then up to the Höhberg. The most beautiful, but also longer route is from Wahlhausen via the Ahrenberghütte to the Ausgespann, on to the Teufelskanzel and then as described above.
