Since who has come up with something. Looks like there's always who has what to make the Michel look the way it is now. 👍

The Grosser Hermannsberg is an 867-meter-high mountain and offers expansive views of the Rhön Mountains. The actual viewing point is accessible via steps carved into the rock and a safety rope, and is secured with a railing.

First up, it rolls over Wachsenrasen, Hoher Schorn, past the Donnershauck …
