Hesselberg Summit

Highlight • Summit

As a witness mountain (a single mountain in a layered landscape) of the Franconian Jura, the Hesselberg is geologically closely related to the Staffelberg (Lichtenfels district) or the Walberla (Forchheim district).

View of Gerolfingen and Aufkirchen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The bench "Ausblick Wilhelmsstein" is a few meters away from the "Schwedenstein/Wilhelmstein" and summit car park. With the Wilhelmsstein, this is probably the first point of contact for most visitors …

View of Röckingen

Highlight • Viewpoint

Again and again there is a wonderful view of the surrounding area, on a clear day you can see as far as the Alps. Here you can see Rockingen, great.
