아우프제스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 산 정상

Next to the tower is a small, abandoned, and rotten wooden shelter. It protected me from the rain after 12 km and provided the only place to sit so far.

Well… if you called it a stool, it would be sufficient…😉

The Neubürg table mountain is the second highest elevation in the region at 587 meters, after the Sophienberg (593 meters). It is located in the Mistelgau municipality. The Neubürg was formed in the Jurassic period. The top layer consists of limestone, followed by Ornatenton and iron sandstone. The Neubürg is called a table mountain because it has a flat table surface instead of a dome. Due to the erosion-related formation, the Neubürg is also called an island or witness mountain. It stands like an island in the further eroded environment and "witnesses" the rock layers that previously covered the entire area.

The Sugarloaf Mountain lies at an altitude of 515 meters. The beautiful view goes on three sides: into the Wiesenttal to the west to the Walberla and almost to Forchheim, to the east the view ends in the narrow and winding valley to Streitberg, opposite the imposing Hummerstein with the Leinleitertal running north with Greifenstein Castle in the background. The summit cross was erected in 1947 as a “sign of thanks and memorial of peace” by those returning from the war.

There is a bench just below the tower. Ideal for snacks.

With its new (built in 2012), 12-meter-high observation tower, the Hohe Kreuz – the highest point of the "hollow mountain" (522 + 12 m) – is now on par with the Adlerstein in height. The view extends over 270° from the Wiesent Valley with the Neideck, across the Aufseß Valley, to the Ochsenkopf in the Fichtel Mountains, and eastward into the Upper Palatinate region – on a clear day! https://www.fraenkische-schweiz.com/detail/id=5f5773735f7f9b38066ef2d9
