루겐도르프‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪9‬개의 산 정상

페터레스슈타인은 매혹적인 자연 기념물입니다. 높이 589미터의 이 산은 자철석이 포함된 사문암으로 구성되어 있어 나침반 바늘이 이곳에서 미친다고 합니다. 하지만 우리는 여러 장소에서 시도했지만 나침반은 정상적으로 방향을 가리켰습니다.

Please note: West of the Roten Bühl, a large amount of forest has been cleared, and new paths have been created in the process. Here, you have to explore the paths yourself, and sometimes you won't find the old, familiar paths again. It's impossible to get lost, as a wide forest road leads around three-quarters of the hill a little lower down. From the forest road, a beautiful forest path leads west to the 7Fuhren (7-horse carriages), and from there, you'll eventually reach the Lucas Cranach Tower, which is well-marked. You can also head for the houses north of the hill and walk back to Staibra on the paved road.

Height according to the sign 708 m above sea level. Not spectacular but still worth a detour

You don't even have to go as far as the cross to find a worthwhile destination here. The Eichenbühl has always been a magnificent vantage point on the western edge of the Franconian Forest. And for connoisseurs there has always been a beautiful little path around the summit. All of this has improved again, because currently (May 2024) the meadow path is beautifully mown and by cutting down spruce trees along the path, the view from the southeast (Fichtel Mountains) to the northeast to the Thuringian Forest is possible. It is best to leave the car on the Kapellenweg on the edge of the forest about 100 m behind the end of the village of Eichleithen. Then you go on a little discovery tour, because the circular route is not yet listed on OSM and Komoot. If you can't find it, look here https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/1578282365 or in the Bavaria Atlas.

A bit through the bushes, then you come to the cross. If you look closely, you can see the path. Unfortunately no bench here, but a view.

A square stone tower stands on the 678 meter high Radspitze north of Seibelsdorf on the Franconian Forest range of hills. The upper floor is paneled with larch wood and has a roof. The viewing terrace is 12.5 meters high, and there is another platform at a height of 18 meters. A comprehensive overview is offered. In the south-east you can see the Fichtelgebirge, in the south the Franconian Jura plateau with Staffelberg, in the west the Steigerwald, Hassberge and Rhön, in the north-west the Thuringian Forest and the Franconian Forest. The tower was built in 1955 with a height of 16 meters. After the lease with Loewe Opta in Kronach expired, the tower was raised and renewed in 1969. After renovations in 1980 and a general renovation in 2000, on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Franconian Forest Association local group Seibelsdorf, the tower shines in its current form.

Currently completely open again. Edit: February '23 closed again!

At the end of my tour I'm still on the Peterlestein. A rocky path, actually very beautiful. Just not so much at the end of the tour just before dark...
