Tourist-Infocenter Palatinate Forest Holiday Region Hauenstein
Views without barriers in the NaturErlebnis Urlaubsregion Hauenstein
A unique scenic backdrop right in the Palatinate Forest-North Vosges biosphere reserve, close to the Hermersbergerhof annexe...
An insider tip for views at all times of the day. Early in the morning, the sun rises behind the trees and decorates the landscape with wafts of mist; in the evening, it sets again over the mountain opposite.
The viewing platform has a highly positive effect on the “experience nature” factor. People with physical disabilities can enjoy the distant view together with their relatives. Long-distance hikers and day visitors alike are offered a spectacular view
