Herzogenhorn

Highlight • Summit

From here, you have a panoramic view, including a magnificent view of the Feldberg, Belchen, and the Vosges Mountains. On a clear day, you can even spot the snow-capped peaks of Switzerland's Alps.

Schwedenschanze (Herzogenhorn)

Highlight • Historical Site

For historically interested people certainly exciting, but little to see (digging). When passing watch, but not plan extra.
