View of the Frankfurt skyline
Highlight • Viewpoint
The view here, through the forest clearing, of the Mainhattan skyline is absolutely impressive 🤩
The small shelter, with a table and bench, is also ideal for a rest!

Observation Tower at Ringwall Lorsbach
Highlight • Viewpoint
The tower takes its name from the Alteburg rampart located further up the hilltop. The wooden tower is 8.60 meters high. The viewing platform is at a height of 4.50 meters.
The tower and the surrounding area are owned by the Lorsbach Local History Society. It was built according to plans by the late society member Emanuel Winkelmann. The tower was inaugurated on December 18, 2005.
The tower at the ringfort is a popular destination for hikers and walkers. It is also easily accessible from Langenhain and Eppstein via hiking trails. The shortest route there leads from Lorsbach along the Alteburgweg trail.
