The 241m high Hirschbühel is a rather unknown neighbor of the Pfefferbüchsel, and therefore very quiet. Beautiful view over Wimpassing

High observation tower, the difficult climb is rewarded with a beautiful view.

The tower has been there for more than a decade and is said to have been transferred from the former Iron Curtain to Sonnenberg, but it still does not appear on any map and is hardly mentioned in many hiking descriptions. Climbing the lookout, however, requires a head for heights, as the ladders are particularly steep and narrow, which puts many visitors off. The lookout is around 18m high.
