Hiking

Crossing point on the Kasseler Kuppe, from here you have the option: 1. Direction Bransrode quarry (on the way you can also make a detour to the highest Meißner point) .... or 2. Direction Kalbe / Kalbesee / Frau Holle Teich / Eulenstieg ... or 3rd in the direction of the transmitter towers / Naturfeundehaus / parking lots

Hiking

From this vantage point—formerly a 2 x 2 x 6-foot pedestal stone—Professor Christian Ludwig Gerling observed the angles between the directions of 11 survey points of the main triangular network of the Electorate of Hesse's triangulation system in 1836: Inselsberg, Milseburg, Knüll, Amöneburg, Hohelohr, Weidelsberg, Herkules, Desenberg, Staufenberg, Hohenhagen, and Göttingen.

Hiking

You should treat yourself to this short extension of the P1 and hike to the intersection of Kasseler Kuppe with the trigonometric point and refuge (approx. 400m more).
