The Hexenbrünnle is very unspectacular, but there is even an old legend named after it. Telling this legend here on site, for example in a hiking group, is fun and is a highlight of the hike. "The Hexenbrünnlein" can be found at www.schweinfurtfuehrer.de

The Schindturm has been beautifully restored and thanks to the roof you can also take shelter when it rains. The information board tells a bit of history. The place is easy to incorporate into hikes along the Mainleite!

The Hexenbrünnle is part of the legend of the witches coming from the Main valley to the north through the Höllenbach valley on Walpurgis Night and stopping here. "The rest of the year" is the beginning of the stairs up to the Almrösl excursion restaurant.

The tower, which was restored a little lower in 2017, is not at all on the steep bank of the Mainleite. Nevertheless, there are very good views of the surrounding area from here due to the visual axes. The tower is an interesting intermediate station on the way between Schweinfurt and the Almrösl excursion restaurant.

The eye-catcher is of course the view up the Main to Mainberg Castle. All in all, everything revolves around the Main flowing at your feet. Because this is also where the extreme southern swing of the river course into the Main triangle begins (Schweinfurt - Kitzingen - Marktbreit - Würzburg - Gemünden). As the crow flies, Schweinfurt and Gemünden are barely 40 km away. However, the flow distance through the Main triangle is around 130 km, i.e. more than three times as much. The information board also reminds of the former excursion restaurant.
