Rietburg (castle ruins with mountain restaurant)

Highlight • Castle

"Thanks" of the chairlift is often busy here.
On a nice weekend you will rarely get a table on the terrace of the restaurant.
Above the restaurant on the ruins but you always have the opportunity to enjoy the view.

Ludwig Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

When the tower was built in 1889, it is said to have had a complete all-round view. Nowadays the view of the Rhine plain is blocked by trees. But you can see well to the east and north-west.

Kohlplatz Picnic Area

Highlight • Rest Area

There are a sufficient number of tables and benches at this intersection. Unless there's a whole bowling club on the go, you'll be able to take a break here.

Schänzelturm on the Steigerkopf

Highlight • Monument

In 1795 there was a battlefield below the Schänzel Tower. Two large memorial stones commemorate this. On the further way there are several carved stones that refer to the battle.
