Schauinsland Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Over 85 steps you reach the 22 meter high viewing platform of the Schauinsland Tower, actually called "Eugen-Keidel Tower". In good weather you can look into the Vosges and the Swiss Alps. The tower is always open.

October 25, 2021,🇩🇪 Schauinslandturm Runde von Schauinslandstraße

Finally on the Schauinsland! Very popular at the weekend, even on Monday there was still a lot going on, thanks to the beautiful weather. Nice circular route with wonderful views and numerous benches.

Nice route. The uphill section is partly on grass, so be careful when it's wet.

The Schauinsland mountain rises to 1,284 meters. From the Eugen Keidel Tower, you have a beautiful panoramic view. The Schniederlihof is small but perfectly formed and also offers a fantastic view. They serve coffee and cake.

We started the tour at the museum mine, so a part of the path is missing. A visit to the mine is highly recommended

March 26, 2024,Panoramablick – Schauinsland Runde von Hofsgrund

A wonderful alpine path leads up to Schauinsland, breathtaking panoramic views along the way and at the top of the viewing point. Contrary to the name, the path is not easy, but I would describe it as medium, as the path usually does not lead along paved paths. Children can walk the path and it is also exciting due to …

Today was the last of our three mother-daughter tours on the Schauinsland. It was supposed to be short, as my mother was a bit worn out from the last two days. The few meters of elevation didn't quite work out. But she bravely persevered.
I did the short tour with 1-on-1 supervision in the mine. It was great, next time …

Two short tours and the phone is empty. Komoot is really bad!

But the tour was very beautiful and strenuous. Wonderful!🤗
