Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view of Elsoff, up the Elsofftal to the Wunderthäuser shop and far into the Waldeck-Frankenberg district.
It's not quite as drafty here as on the Homberg summit!

From the car park it is exactly 2 kilometres to the summit, the way back winds around the outside and is a little longer. You are rewarded with a great view of the surrounding villages. At the top there is a summit cross with a summit book to sign. Highly recommended.
