View of Großer Feldberg from Altkönig

Highlight • Viewpoint

Once you have made the climb through the scree, you are in a somehow mystical place.
Especially when the weather is bad and it is hazy, foggy and the surrounding area is covered in clouds.

Großer Feldberg Summit

Highlight • Summit

The Große Feldberg is not only the highest peak of the Taunus, but of the entire Rhenish Slate Mountains. The information about its exact height varies between 879 and 881 meters. The summit is extremely popular with day trippers from the Rhine-Main plain. Not only motorcyclists, racing cyclists and mountain bikers meet here on weekends, but also many motorists. It can get really crowded at peak times. Fortunately, the summit plateau is quite large. In addition to the television tower and transmission mast of the Hessian Broadcasting Corporation, there is a restaurant, two kiosks, a hiking home with an observation tower and a falconry. The most beautiful view is from the Brunhildis rock on the northern edge of the plateau. Various hiking trails lead over the summit. After all, the Taunus Club was founded up here and even Goethe liked to hike in the Taunus. There are plenty of trails for mountain bikers, including the official flow trail over the Fuchstanz to Hohemark. Racing cyclists particularly appreciate the twelve-kilometer ascent from Oberursel because of its length. The road from Schmitten is less busy, but also offers fewer vertical meters in one go. The Feldberg is by far not the most beautiful peak in the Taunus, but is definitely part of a tour in the Taunus because of its height and easy accessibility.

Brunhildis Rock (Großer Feldberg)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The meeting point is on the summit plateau. A little away from the road, you can enjoy the wide view over the Hintertaunus from here. When the visibility is good, you can see as far as the Westerwald and the Vogelsberg.

Anita's Fuchstanz

Highlight • Restaurant

Actually THE place to stop off on the way to or coming from the Großer Feldberg and the Altkönig. Always full, very popular with hikers and bikers! Also managed in winter.

Fuchstanz: The Forest Inn

Highlight • Mountain Hut

With this highlight I mean the better of the two restaurants on the Fuchstanz: "Fuchstanz - das Waldgasthaus". There are, for example, very tasty tarte flambées, as well as decent salads. The price-performance ratio is okay for me. Payment is made in cash. The restaurant also runs a kiosk with a beer garden opposite the edge of the forest. There is, among other things, pea soup with sausages and it is THE biker meeting point in the Taunus. From the large crossroads directly at the Fuchstanz, paths lead to the Altkönig, Sandplacken, to the “big curve” and up to the Feldberg and down to Falkenstein and Königstein. A large overview map is located to the left of the kiosk.

Attention: Mondays and Tuesdays are closed!

Fortunately, there is not so much activity on the Altkönig. It's just exhausting up here, in contrast to the Feldberg
