View of the Kleiner Gleichberg from the Großer Gleichberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is great, it stretches all the way to the Thuringian Forest. The boulder field of the Kleiner Gleichberg can be seen clearly.
You can find more pictures under the Thuringian View highlight.

Summit of Großer Gleichberg

Highlight • Summit

The climb up to the plateau is strenuous, but the view from above makes up for the effort. You can look towards Franconia (Bavaria) or towards Kleiner Gleichberg (Thuringia). This is where the viewpoints get their name from.

Habichtskanzel Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The hawk's pulpit is located in front of the Frankenblick and a little below it. It can only be reached via a staircase, so it is not possible by mountain bike. Just as the hawk builds its nest in tall old trees, out of reach of enemies, this niche is literally clinging to the edge of the mountain. The name of the seat there was aptly chosen: Himmelsbank - so close to heaven. The view from here is phenomenal and stretches as far as the Rhön or the Steigerwald, assuming good conditions.

Celtic Adventure Trail

Highlight • Trail

Many information boards on the early historical settlements line the path. And otherwise the path through the forest is very nice to hike.

Basalt Blockfield Trail Through the Celtic Ramparts (Kleiner Gleichberg)

Highlight • Trail

A bit of climbing skill is required here and you should definitely be sure-footed. It goes right through the ramparts
