Hiking

The crossroads Hermes is on the former route from Schalkenmehren to Udler at the height of 495 above normal zero. Baroque cross with altar projection, roof-like decorations on the stem of the front surface and on both sides. Lower lower abdomen with foliage. The inscription reads: (not legible anymore) "ANNO 1713 JOANNS HERMES". Here, too, above the inscription, a Pietá carved out of stone. "

On the way to Schalkenmehren around the Maar over the Hohe List you also get to the Hermes Cross. Here, a bank invites you to linger
