The Roman Catholic parish church of St. Joseph is the village church of Waldberg, a district of Sandberg. The church was built between 1768 and 1770. The church tower with its onion dome was added in 1929 to replace the original turret. The furnishings date from the 18th century. The high altar (allegedly from a secularized monastery in Gaibach), with its central painting of St. Joseph, and the side altars depicting Jesus and Mary, are designed in the Rococo style. The three bells in the church tower were consecrated in 1932. (Wikipedia)

Many beautiful hiking trails lead to the Holy Mountain. Beautiful views of the Rhön Mountains can be found from the crosses.

Yep. Beautiful, but steep. As the end of the circular trail, it's quite demanding. So make sure you're in shape!

Strenuous, even though it's "only" 14 km. If you do the loop so that you end up at the monastery (which makes sense, since you can stop for a bite to eat there and it's only a few hundred meters to the parking lot), then you'll have to make up all the elevation gain you lost in the first few kilometers in the last 3 km. That requires a certain level of "final" fitness, even if the hike itself isn't difficult.
