New Franconia Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The old Frankenblick with the shelter hut is now overgrown, but about 100 m further on, the free slope now offers an impressive view of the Gleichbergen and beyond, as well as to the Rhön with the Wasserkuppe.

At Schleusinger Berg or near the Frankenblick, “thanks” to deforestation, the view towards the Gleichberge and the Hildburghäuser Unterland is now clear.
