The Bischofsmütze is located south of Mayerling and is easy to recognize thanks to the rocky pulpit. Of course, it cannot be compared with the impressive limestone peak of the same name in the Dachstein Mountains; there are simply two thousand meters of altitude missing, but the short detour is still worth it.

Visited Mayerling Castle and learned a lot about the tragic story of Crown Prince Rudolf and Mary Vetsera. Then walk up to the Nahe Bischofsmütze with the beautiful view down to Mayerling Castle and over to Alland.
