On the Wenigentaft - Soisdorf road: At this point, the border with its barriers crossed the Wenigentaft - Soisdorf road. The patrol track also led up to the Standorfsberg here. Due to the enormous gradient - probably the steepest in the entire system of GDR border fortifications - it was only used by vehicles in exceptional cases for safety reasons. The slabs were removed towards the end of the 90s.

The spoil heap of the Philippsthal potash mine, along with the spoil heap in Heringen a few kilometers away, gave the region the nickname "Land of the White Mountains." The mountain is a good photo subject from any angle.
