As the name suggests, it was the westernmost location of the Franconians in the past. But riding up it on a mountain bike is an experience. 550 meters of elevation gain in one go from Niederheimbach. It's also ideal for runners for a good workout. And also for hikers for the unique views of and across the Rhine.
