The 360 degree view is awesome. Attention should be the opening hours 9-17 clock, last admission 16:30 clock. Incidentally, the stairs are free of charge. 😉 The entrance is upstairs, to be paid in the Türmerstübchen.

Road Between Ohorn and Gickelsberg

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Nice, albeit short, section through a valley basin. A rapid descent is followed by a small depression and a nice ascent. The asphalt is not necessarily the best, but the route as a whole is easy to drive.
