There is currently only one place to stop for refreshments here - the Sandplacken restaurant. The “Tannenheim” opposite has been closed for about a year.
The Romanian-influenced cuisine of the Sandplacken restaurant is not for everyone... 😉

Ascent to Großer Feldberg from Oberursel

Highlight • Climb

Should be feasible for everyone, regardless of the condition. The streets are clean and the traffic is very limited, even on weekends. Absolutely great to drive.

View of Frankfurt Skyline from Feldberg Road

Highlight • Viewpoint

At this point you currently (=SEP23) have the best possible view of the city (when the trees grow, this will soon change).

Hotel Restaurant Sandplacken

Highlight • Restaurant

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly service, mediocre food at reasonable prices. Small portions can also be ordered. Romanian specialties.
Extensive range of cakes. Definitely the better of the two restaurants on Sandplacken (as of 10/2017).
