Hohemark Information Center and Trailhead

Highlight • Rest Area

Perfect starting point for Taunus tours. Located directly at the “Hohemark” terminus of the S-Bahn. There is also a bus stop of the same name, as well as plenty of parking spaces. There is a place to stop for refreshments in the Waldtraut next to the information center.

Großer Feldberg Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Große Feldberg is not only the highest peak of the Taunus, but of the entire Rhenish Slate Mountains. The information about its exact height varies between 879 and 881 meters. The summit is extremely popular with day trippers from the Rhine-Main plain. Not only motorcyclists, racing cyclists and mountain bikers meet here on weekends, but also many motorists. It can get really crowded at peak times. Fortunately, the summit plateau is quite large. In addition to the television tower and transmission mast of the Hessian Broadcasting Corporation, there is a restaurant, two kiosks, a hiking home with an observation tower and a falconry. The most beautiful view is from the Brunhildis rock on the northern edge of the plateau. Various hiking trails lead over the summit. After all, the Taunus Club was founded up here and even Goethe liked to hike in the Taunus. There are plenty of trails for mountain bikers, including the official flow trail over the Fuchstanz to Hohemark. Racing cyclists particularly appreciate the twelve-kilometer ascent from Oberursel because of its length. The road from Schmitten is less busy, but also offers fewer vertical meters in one go. The Feldberg is by far not the most beautiful peak in the Taunus, but is definitely part of a tour in the Taunus because of its height and easy accessibility.

Flowtrail Feldberg

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

The Feldberg Flowtrail is a beautifully designed flow trail for experienced mountain bikers who like to jump or take a berm. The trail is fun despite its many roots and the nice thing is the bike path to the Fuchstanz runs right next to it, which means if you want to ride again, you can just go back up and do the whole thing again. This is theoretically also possible by car, but we are here to ride our bikes, aren't we? I have to say that some features on the trail are a bit on the small side, including the corners, so ride slowly the first time. Otherwise, the trail is constantly maintained. At the beginning of the trail is an information board where you can find out about the rules and which trail color is suitable for whom. Most of the time it is very pleasant to drive here, even for beginners.
I wish everyone a lot of fun on the trail!

Fuchstanz: The Forest Inn

Highlight • Mountain Hut

With this highlight I mean the better of the two restaurants on the Fuchstanz: "Fuchstanz - das Waldgasthaus". There are, for example, very tasty tarte flambées, as well as decent salads. The price-performance ratio is okay for me. Payment is made in cash. The restaurant also runs a kiosk with a beer garden opposite the edge of the forest. There is, among other things, pea soup with sausages and it is THE biker meeting point in the Taunus. From the large crossroads directly at the Fuchstanz, paths lead to the Altkönig, Sandplacken, to the “big curve” and up to the Feldberg and down to Falkenstein and Königstein. A large overview map is located to the left of the kiosk.

Attention: Mondays and Tuesdays are closed!
