The zigzag path on the Potzberg, also known as the Presidential or Snake Path, leads up the mountain in several switchbacks and offers a pleasant incline thanks to its serpentine route. The path owes its name to its characteristic course and the fact that high-ranking visitors, including presidents, used to take this route to the summit.

This castle-like building, once built as a hotel, now stands abandoned at the summit of the Potzberg – a silent witness to times gone by. 📍 Tip: A short detour is worthwhile – the architecture offers exciting photo opportunities in contrast to the surrounding nature.
